# Mounting Kernel Filesystems

## Mounting Additional Kernel Filesystems

Mount the proper virtual (kernel) file systems on the newly-created directories:

    mount -vt devpts -o gid=&gid-tty;,mode=620 none /dev/pts
    mount -vt tmpfs none /dev/shm

The `mount` commands executed above may result in the following warning message:

    can't open /etc/fstab: No such file or directory.

This file—`/etc/fstab`—has not been created yet (unless using the boot method), but is also not required for the file systems to be properly mounted. The warning can be safely ignored.
