I'm not sure why that worked when my attempt failed, although I do see in dmesg: [ 467.743699] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, no debug enabled [ 467.744733] XFS (dm-3): unknown mount option [noacl]. So is that also the reason it failed at boot? I'm surprised because that would seem to imply it's never been mounted using the information in /etc/fstab before. I suppose it is possible because I only created the filesystem a little while ago. Good news if so, since I can resume mounting by label. > and if that fails, type "dmesg" to show the kernel message, look > towards the end to see what it thinks went wrong. > Look at the end of "dmesg" output when mount fails. > > -Eric Thanks again, Dave PS What's the list etiquette here about replies? I use claws and both Reply and Reply-List would send my reply just to Eric, so I did Reply-All. I just did a quick search for list etiquette for the list but didn't see anything obvious.
