I'm having a problem with 2.5.58, when I boot I get / mounted, but not the other entries on fstab, but if I mount them manually they run ok. All ext3.

Is anybody having the same problem ?
mount-2.11u, e2fsprogs-1.27-4mdk
on MDK 9.0.Your ext3 filesystem is being built as a module, so you are dependent upon correct initrd setup to be able to mount the other filesystems. If those filesystems were not cleanly shut down, ext2 will not be able to mount them. Or something like that. Try setting
CONFIG_EXT3_FS=y.
As I reported in the same thread as the breakage of modules in 2.5.59,
module autoloading doesn't work for me since 2.5.58. Using Rusty's module-init-tools 0.9.8 or 0.9.9-pre. Same utils work flawlessly under 2.4.21-pre3.
I can't run PPP, mount iso9660 CDs, run IrDA - anything modular needs
manual modprobing in both 2.5.58 and 2.5.59 + Kai's fix.
