I've altered fstab now so that /dev/hda5 is mounted as /usr and chnaged
LABEL=/ to /dev/hda. Made no difference. It looks like fstab is just not being
loaded.
Anything held on another partition or drive other than /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda2
is being ignored.
Which package do I need to roll-back (I imagine it will be initscripts) so my
machine will fire up properly?
TTFN
