Hi,

I currently only see one problem. If any partitions that should be automounted 
by /etc/fstab are not on the root disk, then /etc/fstab will fail, because the 
current code will only wait for for the root mount partition. Probably the 
script executing /etc/fstab should be updated to wait for disks aswell.
