Weird. Do you know how the mount is called from your init script ? Can you reproduce it by running mount -a (probably using a different file system since it's /boot we're talking about here). If so then please can you use these debug environment variables and show us the output ? LIBMOUNT_DEBUG=all LIBBLKID_DEBUG=all mount -a Adding kzak to the cc Thanks! -Lukas
