This is better because it checks to see if the real device is mounted,

ofcourse this is only necessary when lilo is used.

and put everything somewhere else besides $mnt, so that lilo can do its
thing on a real device assuming fstab is edited for a non-root user.

Now a non-root user can make a root_fs, the administrator has to add an entry

devfs more than solves that problem!

This adds additional size checks for the files created by depmod. On my
...
system there is no advantage to this because stat views things differently
based on the way the filesystem was created, file -s looks at actual size,
but the block count is what matters, and right now is kind of mysterious, in
reality this is all right, because extra room is better than too little. Soze
count for testing went from 31k to 27k, there is still room.
