Hello list!
I've noticed the following in my rc.log file:
[file system mounting ...]
opt: clean, 3127/6496 files, 108510/209920 blocks
fsck.ext4: Unable to resolve »LABEL=backup«
* Operational error
The backup disk is the only one (besides boot and root) which is mounted
by label. After booting, I find that the backup disk was mounted
correctly. If I then try to run
`fsck.ext4 "LABEL=backup"`, it works as expected.
Does anyone have an explanation for this?
Thanks in advance!
Florian Philipp

Could it be that the volume 'backup' is on isn't available yet? (i.e.
brought up by lvm later in the boot process)

I thought of this, as well, especially because it is a firewire disk.
But then why is it mounted correctly?

It might be brought up by an automounter later on. You might try
removing the entry from fstab, and see if it still gets mounted.

I had similar problems, but I never understood what's causing them. I
solved it by using "/dev/disk/by-label/backup" instead of "LABEL=backup".

Interesting. I think I'll try it.
