90. By Michael Prokop <email address hidden> on 2014-09-25

[ Roger Leigh ]
* Generalise logic used for mounting the rootfs:
  - The existing logic was only intended for mounting the root
    filesystem; this logic has been refactored to support the
    mounting of multiple filesystems
  - Add a read_fstab_entry function to parse /etc/fstab on the
    mounted rootfs
  - Add resolve_device function which generalises the existing
    support for resolving LABEL= and UUID= strings to the
    corresponding device node
  - Add general mount_top, mount_premount and mount_bottom functions,
    with boot-script-specific variants for the local and nfs scripts;
    other boot scripts should override them if needed; the local and
    nfs scripts show how to use these to redirect to a specific
    implementation
  - Add general mountfs function to mount a filesystem from the
    /etc/fstab on the mounted rootfs. This works for both local and
    nfs mounts; other boot scripts may override it to provide more
    specialised functionality
  - The local and nfs bottom scripts are run on demand if used; this
    does not interfere with alternative boot scripts being used,
    which will run first
  - Canonicalise device names to match util-linux mount behaviour;
    this ensures that "mount -a" in mountall does not try to mount
    /usr a second time (which it will attempt if the mounted device
    does not match the canonical device name)
* Mount /usr if present in the /etc/fstab on the mounted rootfs
  (Closes: #652459)
* Check filesystems prior to mounting (Closes: #708000):
  - Add empty /etc/fstab and symlink /etc/mtab to /proc/mounts;
    not essential, but quell a number of fsck warnings
  - Copy fsck and needed fsck helpers, plus logsave
  - Add checkfs function, based on the initscripts checkroot
    script
  - local mount functions will call checkfs prior to mounting
    the filesystem

[ Michael Prokop ]
* [3298dea] Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.6
* [a12d5ed] hooks/fsck: fall back to blkid, make sure fsck binary exists
  + install /sbin/sulogin
