mount -u only means to allow a change in the read/write status of the

your /etc/fstab file is probably wrong if you've used the 1.1c version of
the Installer.
Later.

P.S. Please consider reading the man pages. They really do tell you
everything you need to know, and most of it is not that cryptic. The FAQ
also contains a lot of useful information:
