Also note that the boot doesn't fail if mountall verbose mode is on, or
when there is a small delay (sleep .1) before starting mountall in
/etc/init/mountall.conf

This looks like a race of some kind.

** Summary changed:

- mountall fails with "mountall: fsck /home [369] terminated with status 8"/ 
Non-existent device when booting with arguments "quiet splash"
+ mountall fails with "mountall: fsck /home [369] terminated with status 8"/ 
Non-existent device - Possible race ?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: e2fsprogs
  
  On each boot I get the following message from fsck, which interrupts the boot.
  fsck.ext4: No such file or directory while trying to open 
/dev/disk/by-uuid/a14daa42-496b-425a-bc9f-d59cca6a0216
  Possibly non-existent device?
  mountall: fsck /home [369] terminated with status 8
  mountall: Unrecoverable fsck error: /home
  
  If I press 'I' the the boot continues and the device is correctly
  mounted.
  
+ mountall doesn't fail when:
+ - quiet splash is not present on the boot command line
+ - mountall verbose mode is on (-v to the exec line in /etc/init/mountall.conf)
+ - small delay before starting mountall (sleep .1 before exec line in 
/etc/init/mountall.conf)
