I think he meant a fresh 10.2 install. Upgrading from 10.0 (really?) is just going to give you many useless files and configs, that 10.2 isn't using anymore, or will be confused by. Just start clean with 10.2...

I started with a brand new (used) iBook/800 which already had 10.2.1(?) installed on it. I repartitioned the disk, reinstalled from the Apple iBook Mac OS X Install CDs, followed the recipe for customizing mount points, and I also got the bus error complaints from /etc/rc when it tries to mount -vat hfs... however, it doesn't seem to hurt being able to boot up. Installing 10.2.4 via Software Update didn't change this behavior.

By the way, I agree that it's not necessary to do SetFile in /etc/rc, except as a belt-and-suspenders measure in case you might have manually made a volume visible again and want it to revert to being invisible when you reboot.
