I double checked fstab, the mount point for / was correct. I did however
discover that /dev/hdc7 had been were my swap partition was located, so
it tried to mount /dev/hdc7 twice, first as / and then as swap.
I changed the mount point for swap to /dev/hdc6 and it booted without
a problem.

So, new question: Shouldn't the mounting of /dev/hdc7 for the second
time as swap just have failed, instead of unmounting /? Linux should
be able to boot without a swap partition shouldn't it?
So bug or feature?
