Would it be practical to mount by device name (e.g. /dev/sde1) instead
of UUID?
Do those devices appear in /proc/partitions at that stage of the boot?
The mount man page says
BUGS
...
Mount by label or uuid will work only if your devices have the
names listed in /proc/partitions. In particular, it may well
fail if the kernel was compiled with devfs but devfs is not
mounted.
