Since I have a old install, maybe the new fstabs don't have this info. |
| 21 |
This is what is in mine: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot! |
| 25 |
none /proc proc defaults 0 0 |
| 26 |
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for |
| 27 |
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink). |
| 28 |
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will |
| 29 |
# use almost no memory if not populated with files) |
| 30 |
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this: |
| 31 |
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
From that I gather that the system won't boot without /proc and that |
| 35 |
glibc requires /dev/shm for some reason or other. I'm not sure why you |
| 36 |
want to remove something that appears to be required. Maybe you have |
| 37 |
something different that doesn't need this? |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Hope that helps. |
