I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I recently added a 1 terabyte iSCSI volume with a single ext4 partition. Everything works as it should but with the only issue being I cannot create a mount point using fstab with a UUID line. I can mount the mount point manually but it wont mount a boot time. The boot process stops and displays a message like "The disk drive for /images is not ready yet or not present." Is there some way to delay the mounting of the mount point until after the drive becomes available?

I believe the problem in your case is that you are trying to mount a remote device before the network has finished coming up. You should add the _netdev option to /etc/fstab for the iSCSI device to make it wait to mount until the network is up.
