Run blkid as root and make sure all your disks have the correct UUID
in /etc/fstab. You should be mounting them using UUID instead of
device name or label.
Here is a sample from my fstab:
#/dev/sda1
UUID=c6e94dd5-0cc3-4940-ac15-cb0ea856fd9a /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
#/dev/sda5
UUID=c94b5547-e098-45ca-8776-cce0e0cd6bac / ext4 defaults 1 1
Maybe you are already doing this.
Compare the F10 and F11 /etc/fstab for these disks. Make sure the
mount points are unique.
You could check for bugs like this in bugzilla.
