Previous version of initscripts is also broken even if consequences
are not so dire.

I did some investigations.  In /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit there are lines
which say:

# Enter mounted filesystems into /etc/mtab
mount -a -f

Put directly before that 'mount -a' (without quotes, of course).

This does not solve all troubles but at least makes a system
bootable (even if you will notice such "details" like possibly a
missing entry for '/' in /etc/mtab and that also means that '/' will
not show up in an output of 'df'; this can be fixed too but I do not
see a "one-liner").
