The order is not a problem - as long as / is mounted, you can mount
the rest of your file systems in any order. It would be different if
some of your mount points were on a file system other then /. Then
you would want to make sure that file system was mounted before you
tried to use those mount points.

Dumb question - are you running SELinux in the enforcing mode? If
so, you will need to have SELinux relabel the system.
