Trust me,it is not a Red Herring. This method worked for a three node
cluster (one node had a different configuration) as this ensures that any
device drivers (Like SAS DAS box Which I came across once) which are not
"burnt" into initrd but are later loaded when the full system is booted.

The  rc.local method worked reliably compared to the /etc/fstab entries. But
then YMMV.
