Adding a mountpoint for a disk with yast will by default create an entry in
fstab, which makes the volume mandatory to exist at bootup. Users who add
volumes here, will not be able to bootup if the drive doesn't exist.
Yast could warn if the device is removable, or suggest a "noauto" setup. Not
sure what's appropriate here.
We also have a "nofail" option added to our mount, which will ignore missing
volumes. But that patch is pending upstream, so can't be sure if that option
will not be renamed for future releases, if upstream disagrees with the name.
Thomas, what do you think?
