Hi,
I have 2 XFS partitions that I want mounted at boot (they're in fstab). These are existing partitions and mount fine under my existing F14. But under F16 I get unpredictable behavior at boot, 99% of the time I get prompted to enter emergency mode, then press ^D to continue the boot and everything proceeds normally and the 2 XFS partitions get mounted anyway.
Here's what dmesg says:
Code:

[ 13.409917] systemd[1]: Unit mnt-whatever.mount entered failed state.
[ 13.516056] XFS (sdb2): Ending clean mount
Here's fstab:
Code:
/dev/sdb2 /mnt/backup xfs defaults 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/whatever xfs defaults 0 0
If I just have 1 of either of these XFS partitions enabled in fstab then the issue does not happen. Very rarely, with both partitions enabled in fstab, the boot goes without a hitch. So I'm thinking there is some kind of race condition at work here.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to work around / fix this or should I just report a bug?
TIA.
