/etc/rc.sysinit mountpoint not found

Whenever I boot I get errors about mount point not being found, the boot stops, and then something times out and it boots fine. It's still really anoyying waiting those 30 seconds.

What can I do to fix it?

Here's the errors and some general info.

/etc/rc.sysinit: line 15: mountpoint: command not found
mount: proc already mounted
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 16: mountpoint: command not found
mount: /sys already mounted or /sys busy
mount: according to mtab, /sys is already mounted on /sys
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 17: mountpoint: command not found
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 18: mountpoint: command not found
mount: udev already mounted or /dev busy
mount: according to mtab, udev is already mounted on /dev
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 22: mountpoint: command not found
/etc/rc.sysinit: line 24: mountpoint: command not found

grep mountpoint /etc/rc.sysinit
mountpoint -q /proc    || mount -t proc proc /proc -o nosuid,noexec,nodev
mountpoint -q /sys     || mount -t sysfs sys /sys -o nosuid,noexec,nodev
mountpoint -q /run     || mount -t tmpfs run /run -o mode=0755,nosuid,nodev
mountpoint -q /dev     || mount -t devtmpfs dev /dev -o mode=0755,nosuid
mountpoint -q /dev/pts || mount /dev/pts &>/dev/null ||
mountpoint -q /dev/shm || mount /dev/shm &>/dev/null ||


pacman -Qo mountpoint
/bin/mountpoint is owned by util-linux 2.20.1-2

I get those same errors but booting continues unabated. I'd like to know of a solution if you find one.

Post /etc/fstab, please.

Re: /etc/rc.sysinit mountpoint not found

After a fresh install of Arch and having no choice but to use the force switch with pacman, I too received those errors.  I don't think it's the right solution, but I went into rc.sysinit and commented out the 'mountpoint' lines and split the 'mount' portion to their own lines.  Have not received that message since.
