Probably /dev/hda2 doesn't exist at that stage of boot.  Is it
created dynamically by udev?  If so, perhaps there is a race 
between udev and rc.sysinit's mount -a.

Can you configure udev to trigger a mount /dev/hda2 after it
creates the /dev/hda2 device node?  I'm sure this is possible,
but I know next-to-nothing about udev.

Later,
Kenn
