Just checked, and mtab is not a symlink. It is a plain text file. Just tried takinga backup of mtab and symlinking /proc/mounts onto /etc/mtab yields no different results when trying `/etc/init.d/dbus start`. Is this something I fix somewhere else or maybe I just need to reboot the system after symlinking. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJWbIDrAAoJEMUjE08Xv1s5xiMH/RHhiWklaZiMes7h5PSVLP7M JLJJ14jpqytxPfDujZfUznT+Yed/QxvwNSG2lK7YidxKxrTwB/F8cslFKHulDMc/ Sp4knftRAdHu9f21lkt+LWgfryu6ZxOu4lzCjGev/47yFU7nOb/5BWfBVinGm8vo lZVweuEQJOmqs1k7cl5EpYMbKzx6YYuQpkGddV5VK9Gq99r6zSCThpc/XkS49gLF DTblOWBXcJcmw3vWwsYHwdGz2eIAdCN5LJ0brRCwocWneZUXRouDuITBhGCtWL1W gnSp6W/WWY9khINvZmiJUxxP0Oe+YQ+88MBLly2f4ptn4NUVJFA+gRm6XOlw/50= =Wsr+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
