    Cannot find matching filesystem. AFter commenting this line from /etc/fstab it boots fine.

    What could be the problem?

    So yes it is possible that it will barf while trying to do a FSCK (the file-system checking program)

    If this is not desired - try changing the two numbers to '0 0' a bit like this ...
    1. test filesystems
    /dev/mapper/vgtest0-lvtest01 /mnt/part1 ext2 noauto,defaults 0 0
    /dev/mapper/vgtest0-lvtest02 /mnt/part2 ext2 noauto,defaults 0 0
    /dev/mapper/vgtest0-lvtest03 /mnt/part3 ext2 noauto,defaults 0 0
    /dev/mapper/vgtest0-lvtest04 /mnt/part4 ext3 noauto,defaults 0 0
