Automount

[Robert Davison]

I've just installed an external SCSI hard drive in the form of a sun StorEdge. All is working well.
   
  The StorEdge has two drives called da0 and da1 respectivly.
   
  I've put entries into /etc/fstab so that they are mounted on boot as /s and /t. My question is.......
   
  If I dont have the StorEdge running 24/7 and I reboot the server, the boot process fails when mounting the file systems as /s /t can not be reached.
   
  Is there anyway of writing an automount line in fstab that is smart enough to know that if the /s and /t are not reachable then continue with the boot process without stopping. My fstab enty is...
   
  /dev/da0s1d   /s    ufs    rw    0    0
   
  I see that the cdrom has the entry
   
  /dev/cd0    /cdrom    cd9660  ro,noauto   0    0
   
  Is it simply a case of changing the mount option to rw,noauto ??
