Beginning with RH9 the machine would boot up perhaps 3 times out of 10 with his "duplicate" error message above and only '/' would be mounted after it came up (out of about 6 mount points that should be mounted). I had no problems on RH 7.3 like this and now Fedora does the same thing as RH9. After changing to the device names instead of the labels in fstab all is well again.
