Attached are a couple of screenshots showing two sequential boots, where I just hit CTRL-ALT-DEL .. the subsequent attempt after these two shots resulted in a successful boot with no issues. You can clearly see in the screenshot that the /raid/home partition checks *clean* but then fails to mount due to being *busy* .. so there is some race condition here. It seems to happen randomly to various partitions of ext3/ext4 on different physical disks, some within LVM+RAID, some not. So I have to assume its some sort of mountall race condition here with disk checks.
