Hi,
you could try to stick at various boot stages a little program like this:

__________________________________________________________________________
#include <sys/mount.h>
#include <syslog.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
        /* Eventually adjust the args to your liking */
    if (mount("/dev/sda1", "/hdd", "ext4", 0, NULL) == -1) {
        fprintf(stderr, "%s: %s\n", "mymount", strerror(errno));
        syslog(LOG_ERR, "%s", strerror(errno));
    } else {
        fprintf(stderr, "%s: %s\n", "mymount", strerror(errno));
        syslog(LOG_INFO, "%s", strerror(errno));    
    }
    return 0;
}
__________________________________________________________________________

Compile with:
gcc -Wall mymount.c -o mymount

This will log error or success to syslog with some hopefully meaningful messages:

Jun 14 17:03:13 devuan kernel: EXT4-fs (sdm1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
Jun 14 17:03:13 devuan mymount: mymount: Success

Hope this helps.

Ciao,
Tito
