The following text appears several times whilst booting. Its

[snipped mount usage info]

do you have some stuff in your fstab that is out of date?

like what? only comments and filesystems that I want mounted - see
below

[snipped perfectly good fstab]

just a stab in the dark. shrug. what point in booting does this
happen? is it before or after pivot-root?

Its afterwards.

The first record I have is just after the hardware clock is set

Wed Jan 31 18:52:45 2007: Will now activate swap.
Wed Jan 31 18:52:45 2007: swapon on /dev/sda2
Wed Jan 31 18:52:45 2007: swapon on /dev/sdb2
Wed Jan 31 18:52:45 2007: Done activating swap.

Then later some sort of cleanup
