Comment 7 for bug 479429

I also have this problem. It fails to mount both my /var/tmp and my (encrypted) swap. If I hit escape for the shell and run "mount /var/tmp" and then exit the shell, it succeeds (including mounting the swap by itself). I also have the same problem on another system which is configured similarly but has a whole lot of other partitions too.

Here is my fstab:

proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
UUID=44cefac6-7f68-4498-b706-b5eb3647ef75 / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/mapper/swap none swap sw 0 0
tmp /tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0
vartmp /var/tmp tmpfs nosuid,nodev 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

Here is my crypttab:

swap /dev/sda1 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256,hash=sha512

I'm attaching the output of mountall --debug from after a successful boot. I don't know if I can run it when /var/tmp isn't mounted yet from the shell or not, but I don't have time at the moment anyway; if you need something like that, or other information, let me know specifically what to do, and I will post it later in the week.
