Wish I knew. Fortunately it's only an issue after a reboot which is rarely needed on my machine. I'm just going to let it ride until it get's worked out.

> I just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04. Everything was working prior to the upgrade. I have an External USB attached Hard Drive which I have added to fstab by it's UUID ... actually it was in there from before the upgrade. When the system comes up, the drive is not visible. If I issue a "sudo mount - a" I get an error that UUID xxxxx is not found. If I power cycle the drive and then reissue the command, the drive works as normal. This only became an issue after 9.04 and occurs during reboots.
