Automatic mounting but without stopping on errors
I have an entry in /etc/fstab to mount /dev/hdc1 on /backup as ext3
automatically. However, sometimes this harddrive is unplugged (meaning
there's nothing on /dev/hdc) or replaced with another non-ext3 partition
(e.g. vfat or reiserfs3).
Can I still put the /backup entry in /etc/fstab without Debian stopping
and asking for a root password at boot when the /backup drive is not
there? I've tried the "errors=continue" option but that didn't do it.
I'd like Debian to continue without mounting the /backup.
Regards,
dave
