/dev/fd0, fsck and fstab



My fstab had the following entry to enable easy mounting of fd0.  The "2"
in field 6 was meant to enable a fsck when a floppy was mounted.

/dev/fd0        /floppy         ext2       noauto          0       2

This used to work, but now on system boot it complains that it cannot
check /dev/fd0, the boot process stops and I get prompted for either root
password or a ^D to continue.

No problem for a local box but a royal PITA when it is a remote box.  I
just lost a morning visiting the remote site to fix.  Has anything
changed?  Is a bug report called for?
