Greetings

I have a computer with these:

--cpu: amd64 2 cores, OS: blfslinux linux-4.2, gcc-4.8,1, kmod-21,systemd-224: 
UI:kde-4.14

the computer 'boots' but  the systemd-tmpfiles.service consistently fails
AND usbsticks  fail to  in dolphin as shown below:
#----------------------------------------------
..failed to execute child process "mount" (no such file or directory) 
)g-exec-error-quark,8 )
#----------------------------------------------

 I  do not know if the tmpfiles boot error  is related to the the failure to 
mount usb sticks.


Closer examination of the boot error  reveals the following:-

#----------------------------------------------

#----------------------------------------------

All  files in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d are those shipped with systemd-224 and I 
presume those of type  /run/tmpfiles.d/kmod.conf?? are autogenerated.
( SO Are there kernel options needed to remove these errors?? ) I would like 
to know  how to fix the above and to  be able to open usb sticks normally on 
the computer.

Thanks in advance
