One thing than can cause this is messed-up partition ID's / typecodes. Check out the ceph-disk script to see how they get applied. I have a few systems that somehow got messed up -- at boot they don't get started, but if I mounted them manually on /mnt, checked out the whoami file and remounted accordingly, then started, they ran fine.
