Severity: important

USB disk partitions usually mount fine on boot (entries are in fstab, using 
UUID to identify partitions), but sometimes they do not. On these occasions, 
doing 'mount -a' as root when the system has finished booting mounts them 
without a problem. 

The disk has some powersaving feature and takes a few seconds to 'wake up.' I 
wonder if the boot scripts call the mount command before the device nodes have 
been created??

Next time this occurs, i will look for relevant details in logs and add to the 
bug report.

Anything else helpful i can provide?

Alex
