I have a similar problem with a fully patched clean install of Dapper. I have 5 nfs v3 partions and 1 smbfs share in /etc/fstab that always mount after a reboot but /etc/mtab usually only shows one of the remote file systems. Sometimes it is one of the nfs shares and sometimes it is the smbfs share that shows.
