You can see my Problem Report at: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=22577 You'll also notice a similar problem to mine at: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/12564 I solved some of my problems by doing a ro,noauto in the options fields of fstab(5). Other than that check with hackers@freebsd.org to see if someone has a fix. If it's truely annoying, you might consider writing a Problem Report at: http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html or on your own system there is a send-pr(1) Hope this helps. Jessem.
