Auto-mounting and unattended boot



Hi.

I have a removable drive in a machine that doesn't have a display and
is used via the network. Since the drive is removable, sometimes the
machine boots without the drive, and sometimes with it. I'd like to
have it mount the filesystem on the drive automatically on boot, but
if it's not there it shouldn't wait for a root password like it does
now, but just fail and continue booting. Is it possible somehow?

Thanks in advance!
Please, CC me on your replies, since I'm not on this list. Thanks.
