[TriLUG] What does action mean in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit?

You may remember that I recently created a new partition for holding
/usr/share since my /usr partition was almost full. I've migrated all of the
data to my new partition, and /etc/fstab now looks like
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/usr/share /usr/share ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/data /data ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
LABEL=/opt /opt ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/usr/local /usr/local ext2 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/oracle /oracle ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/mvstar /mvstar ext3 defaults 1 2
inigo:/home /home nfs rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0
inigo:/usr/local/CvsRoot /usr/local/CvsRoot nfs rw,bg,hard,intr 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/hda11 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
The problem is that I keep getting
Feb 5 22:14:55 localhost mount: mount: mount point /usr/share does not exist
Feb 5 22:14:56 localhost rc.sysinit: Mounting local filesystems: failed
on boot.
The following line in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit seems to be the one that's failing
action $"Mounting local filesystems: " mount -a -t nonfs,smbfs,ncpfs -O
no_netdev
I don't know what "action" is. Once the system finishes booting, I see that
the /usr/share partition has been mounted
# mount
....
/dev/hdb5 on /usr/share type ext3 (rw)
Running the mount command from rc.sysinit on the command line produced no
errors.
Any ideas? Could the "action" command be detecting a bogus failure?
Thanks,
---Tom
