The original problem, though sadly I did not post the exact messages, was saying it could not run fsck.cifs (which of course is non-existent). The bug in this case was that with pass=0 it should not even have tried to run a check on boot-up.

The bug now is the same underlying problem, that during the initial pass though fstab to do any file system checks during booting it is trying to mount the CIFS systems which (a) won't work as networking, etc, is not up yet, and (B) the log-in credentials are missing as they are on my /home partition, also not mounted yet.

Basically the problem is at this stage it should only be considering locally mounted file systems, as anything else cannot be mounted until the system has booted further and has networking, samba, nfsd, etc, are up.

Maybe even stronger, it should not bother at this stage with anything if pass=0 since you are basically telling it not to check things.
