Yes, a dumb error on my part.
#/dev/sda /raid/fc0 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
#/dev/sdb /raid/fc1 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
#/dev/sdc /raid/fc2 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
should have been
#/dev/sda1 /raid/fc0 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
#/dev/sdb1 /raid/fc1 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
#/dev/sdc1 /raid/fc2 ext3
defaults,usrquota 1 2
I made those changes. and also ran e2label on each partition and each
one came back with the expected label.
It would appear that the problem is when during the boot process the
system checks to see if each partition needs to have fsck run. When
it reaches these partitions is when it gives the superblock error. If
I change the last digit in the fstab for these partitions from 2 to 0
it does not check and everything seems to mount just fine.
