	LOAD_ACTIONS is not part of ocfs2-tools 1.4.  Can you verify you
have ocfs2-tools 1.4 installed and that your /etc/init.d/o2cb comes from
it?  I wonder if it was marked as a 'configuration' file and as such not
overwritten by a newer version.
	That being said, if you are using ocfs2-tools 1.2, LOAD_ACTIONS
should contain a number of other actions.  Did you hand-edit
/etc/init.d/o2cb to remove some actions when you compiled the modules
in?
