Mounting Root Filesystem With "relatime"

Hi,

I've just installed Hardy Alpha 3 (x86 - server version). During the
setup, at the disk partitioning stage, I attempted to set the root
filesystem to mount with the relatime option. After making some
changes to the disk, the installation failed to progress and informed
me that mounting the disk to / failed. I went back into the
partitioner and removed the relatime mount option and the install
progressed as expected. Is this expected behaviour (i.e. you shouldn't
mount / with relatime) or some kind of bug?

Cheers,

Sean
