I uploaded a redhat cluster suite in dapper (i assume we are talking dapper
here) to ship the gfs init script. I did check again
and the noauto must be removed. The script does respect that.
In Ubuntu gfs volumes are not mounted by default, and they will mounted by
the script.

I did check your config but could you be so kind to paste the exact error?

As far as i know you need the 3rd node to join the cluster and the fence domain
otherwise the nodes do not know how to tell saruman how to fence gnbd, but it
doesn't need any other service.

It is also ideal anyway to have 3 nodes voting in the cluster. In your
case with a quorum of 2.
The 3rd node will sort of keep an eye on the other 2 that are doing the real
work without taking services.
