When I boot in single user mode fsck runs fine, without
any contention from anything else, and the filesystem is
clean, and /home is mounted automaticallt.
When I go back to multi-user boot the intermittent
failures begin again. They seem to be "streaky". When
there is a problem, it appears to remain problematic
boot after boot until (with no changes in anything I'm going)
it starts being fine, and then will be fine for a while.
