Hi,
I've installed a new linux server, redhat el as 3 upd 8, kernel version 2.4.21-47.0.1.
At every boot it stays about 10 minutes (now more!!) at "Updating fstab".
This is my /etc/fstab. From my point of view it seems ok:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
LABEL=/opt /opt ext3 defaults 1 2
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
LABEL=/sysmgmt /sysmgmt ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/tmp /tmp ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/usr /usr ext3 defaults 1 2
LABEL=/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/sdc1 /data ext3 noatime,defaults 0 0

Please help. I'm putting this server in production now!
Now I've added /dev/sdc1 which mounts a LUN (IBM FastT600).
Before rebooted I did the mount manually and it took less that one second and it mounted it correctly.

Thanks in advance.
 
Note that I have only one cdrom, I don't know why there are two entries in /etc/fstab.
I usually mount /dev/cdrom1

Thanks again. Please help as soon as you can, I'm really in trouble.
 
Now server started, but it stayed about 12-13 minutes doing that "Update /etc/fstab".
Any clue?

Thanks again.
 
You're right. I posted here for error, I thought I was in linux page.

Sorry
