Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out a problem I'm having with mounting local disks.
I have the following fstab:

# See the fstab(5) manual page for important information on automatic mounts
# of network filesystems before modifying this file.
#
# Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump    
Pass#
/dev/aacd0s1b           none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/aacd0s1a           /               ufs     rw              1       1
#/dev/aacd1s1f          /usr/local/mysql ufs    rw              2       2
/dev/aacd0s1f           /tmp            ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/aacd1s1e           /usr            ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/aacd0s1e           /var            ufs     rw              2       2
/dev/acd0c              /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0
proc                    /proc           procfs  rw              0       0

If I uncomment the line which mounts /usr/local/mysql, the machine won't 
boot.
I have experimented with this on our development boxes and it works 
fine. The
original fstab has /dev/aacd1s1f mounting on /dsk1 which also works fine.
Leaving the line commented out works fine (sans disk of course). But trying
to mount the drive where I want it hangs at boot - this is a particular 
problem
since I don't have console access to see what is actually going on.

The tech guy who fixes things for us reckons there is a mistake in the 
line, but
I can't see it. What am I missing?

Regards,
Duncan
