I wonder how it booted the second time? IIRC I had to comment out the fdisk 
sectionin a rc script because the Dockstar does not have an RTC and after 
reboot the system time is set to 1970 again which causes another fsck run 
(fsck is forced if umount time is later than mount time). This ends up in an 
endless loop.

Perhaps you remember that I've told you to do so ;-)
