The patch titled Subject: init/do_mounts.c: print error code on mount failure has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was init-do_mountsc-print-error-code-on-mount-failure.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: Bernhard Walle <bernhard@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: init/do_mounts.c: print error code on mount failure Printing the error code makes it easier to debug the cause of a mount failure. For example I had the problem that the root file system could not be mounted read-writeable because my SD card was write-protected. Without an error code it looks like the SD card was not detected at all.
