two drives wont mount after reboot [FIXED]

Well I rebooted a few minutes ago and upon startup I find that two of my sata drives didn't mount. I tried running mount -a as root and it tells me that the devices are already mounted or that the folders they mount to are busy. Here is the exact output...

mount -a
mount: /dev/sdc1 already mounted or /media/stuff busy
mount: /dev/sdd1 already mounted or /media/music busy

I tried umount -a and the mount -a again but I get the same message. Can someone help me out here, I am completely lost on this one. Thanks.

edit: Just so you know all other drives (cdrom, root, boot, logical volume) mounted correctly.

Re: two drives wont mount after reboot [FIXED]

This happened after upgrade to kernel26-2.6.19?
Your drives are SATA, IDE or mixed?
If latter - do you use ide or pata hook in mkinitcpio.conf?
if latter - have you modified your fstab and run mkinitcpio -p kernel26 ?
Also, you may post your fstab here.
