[Initng] Mount point sometimes isn't mounted soon enough

Yes, some daemons do complain. And this problem has happened again
today; I typed "mount" and verified that /mnt/hdc2 is indeed not
mounted. 

Oh, and I have changed the physical location of the hard disk and it is
now hdc2; I have chaged fstab and have created a symlink from /mnt/hdb2
to /mnt/hdc2. If you want to see my fstab here it is (I have stripped
some comments)

/dev/hda2		/		reiserfs	noatime,notail			0 1
/dev/hdc2		/mnt/hdc2	reiserfs	noatime,notail,user		0 0
/dev/hda1		none		swap		sw,pri=1		     	0 0
/dev/hdc1		none		swap		sw,pri=0	     		0 0
/dev/hdb		/mnt/cdrom1	auto		noauto,user,ro			0 0
/dev/fd0		/mnt/floppy	auto		noauto,user			0 0
/dev/sda1		/media/camera	vfat		noauto,user			0 0

none			/var/tmp 	tmpfs		size=10000M,defaults		0 0

none                    /tmp      	tmpfs          	size=128M,defaults              0 0

# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
none			/proc		proc		defaults			0 0

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for 
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
none			/dev/shm	tmpfs		nodev,nosuid,noexec		0 0

initng-ifiles is straight from cvs, updated yesterday

[snipped]

Note: the version of initng in my PC is modified; I put kexec support
in it (I just had to add a few lines in initng_main.c). By the way,
when will the official initng have kexec support??
