Hi

Bad Karma, but I found the reason myself :-(

My previous version was 4.1 and there was no entry in fstab for devpts.
I added stuff to /etc/fstab locally, actually completely legal and saved
the changes to configdb, thus the fstab was overwritten and lacked the
entries for the newly created mount points in 5.x.

Had I upgraded the router previously to 5.x this would probably have
occurred earlier, it is a 4.x to 5.x issue. I suggest to document this
in some gotcha section of an upgrade guide.

cheers
