I have a similar problem. I have 2 SCSI HDs. One of them containing the system mounts every time I boot, the other one only mounts on alternate boots. Most odd. I asked about this before but no one had any thoughts. Now that there's another HD mounting issue around I wondered if anyone else had any ideas.
