On a lark, I changed the pass number in fstab to 0.  That fixed the

Is there a legitimate reason to set a pass number if you actually do not want
the filesystem to be checked?


I would say probably not. But in the past, I (and others) would often cut-and-paste fstab lines, then add noauto. Previously, the system would not attempt to fsck filesystems marked noauto. So this upgrade could render people's machines unbootable.

On the other side of the coin, I see no reason to fail to boot because a noauto filesystem didn't fsck.
