I didn't modified the init scripts. But now I looked what is starting
at boot and found out that / is remounted also during quotacheck - and
this is the one that causes the problem.

I've booted into single user mode and / was mounted correctly. Then
ran quotacheck and after that it was mounted without noatime. So it is
probably quotacheck bug. For now I added 'mount -o remount /' command
to /etc/local.start as a workaround.

Thank you all for your replies.
