Dave,
I also had that problem of mounting root twice. After some looking, I noticed that you are trying to mount proc (and to create the mtab file) first, but in the current setup, the filesystems are mounted as read-only (they don't get changed to read/write until the S20local_fs script is run, yet you are trying to write to the drives using the S15proc_fs script). The process is backwards, I would rename the S20local_fs script to S15local_fs and the S15proc_fs to S20proc_fs. This will already have the filesystems mounted as read/write so that you can create the mtab file. Hope this post is understandable :).

Hi,
Version 1.2 of the pocket linux guide is available from the linux
documentation project web site at http://www.tldp.org/guides.html. This
is just a minor bug fix that takes care of a typo in Chapter 3.
There is also a preview snapshot of version 2.0 that can be found on the
pocket linux resource site at
http://my.core.com/~dhorton/linux/pocket/html/2.0_preview/. Version 2.0
is not finished and the preview will probably change fairly often. So
far the only big improvement is that /etc/mtab is no longer a link to
/proc/mounts. If anyone was experiencing the double root mounting
problem that Daniel brought up a few days back, you may want to look at
the 2.0 preview. Otherwise it's probably better to hold off a while.
Dave
