Re: RHEL 5.8 mount fails "cannot open /dev/fuse"

Running the script did indeed fix things, thanks! Personally, I count this as a bug since it is not required on later versions of RHEL... maybe the installer should check that the fuse module is loaded and load it if it's not found. Just a thought.

Yes, you can run the script manually (it only does 'modprobe fuse').
After a reboot the fuse module should be loaded very early during the
boot process. There should be no issues related to fuse when mounting is
done afterwards.
