NISE East Charleston, SC 
>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1.0-951026-SNAP
>Environment:

	ASUS PCI/E-P54NP4 w/ one P133 CPU
	(1) SC-200 NCR SCSI controller 
 	1 MAXTOR 540SL drive internal
	2 HITACHI 2.7GB drives external

>Description:

	During the install process the fstab that is built by the install
	program puts the mounts in the wrong order.  For example, on the 
	above hardware, I have the / and /var partitions on the internal
	drive (sd0), /usr and /usr/u0 mounts on sd1, and /usr/u0 mounts on
	/usr/u1.

	The fstab generated by the install program tries to mount /usr/u1
	before mounting /usr which stops the boot process upon rebooting
	after the install is done.
>How-To-Repeat:

	Can be done over and over on my machine.  I put the following
	entries in the partition & label portion of the install program :

	/	20M	sd0
	swap	128M	sd0
	/var	250M	sd0
	/root	123M	sd0
	swap	128M	sd1
	/usr	1500M	sd1
	/usr/u0 1012M	sd1
 	swap	128M	sd2
	/usr/u1 2612M	sd2
	in that order, and it always puts the /usr/u1 entry as the first in
	the fstab file, thus producing the error.
>Fix:

	Move the mount points into the correct order as specified in the
	install program.
