The short answer from off to login prompt is: 

power on (--> hardware checks?) --> u-boot --> linux kernel --> processes

NewIT maintain an excellent forum to help their customers. Search there for the results of your mount command - sometimes there are plenty of new users stuck at the same point. 

Good luck.
