Do for the moment 'ln -sf /proc/mounts /etc/mtab'.  It is not
really correct but should tide you over.

If you have some file systems which appear to be mounted but
still have nothing to show, say /usr to be specific, do

   umount /usr ; mount -a

without paying attention to error messages.  Most likely it will
help.  Repeat as long as needed.
