incidentally, another really good tool that I only discovered recently is
blkid
which will list all the labels and UUIDs of all the partitions/filesystems in 
your (saves running e2label repeatedly).

the other hint that I would throw at this issue is the idea that the FC HBA 
driver might not be loaded at the time that rc.sysinit attempts to mount 
those filesystems.

this could be fixed by including it in your initrd so that all disks are 
visible before they are checked by your boot scripts

man mkinitrd

but the option you may wish to try is
mkinitrd --preload="name_of_FC_driver" -v -f /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img

which will load the FC driver right at the start of the boot process.
