Let me make sure I've got this right: you have two different entries in /etc/fstab that correspond to the same partition, and one of them says it is fat?

I can venture some guesses. Assuming you were still using sysvinit in sid, checkroot.sh probably unconditionally checks the root without caring about the order specified in fstab. fsck also probably just uses the last entry found when more than one applies rather than trying to arbitrate using the order entry. > Would I be correct in guessing that the zero logical sector size > comes from picking up a number from a FAT-ty location that contains > zero in a linux partition.
