Hi all,
I have a USB stick with a UFS partition that is mounted at boot (as part of the parsing of /etc/fstab).
However I want the machine to boot even when the USB is not inserted.
My /etc/fstab entry had
Is there an /etc/fstab option that will let the OS boot with AND without the USB present without the use of a script/crontab entry?
To be clear, if the USB is not present at boot, I want to boot, and I don't care to have it mounted automatically later should it be inserted.
Thanks,
Scott

noauto
and I was mounting the USB via /etc/crontab but automount had some odd interactions, so I removed the noauto
option and let the OS mount it at boot.Is there an /etc/fstab option that will let the OS boot with AND without the USB present without the use of a script/crontab entry?
