[Bug 610869] Re: mountall ignores nofail mount option

[Ivan Frederiks]

Are you sure? I need 'nofail' option to use my external hdd with my laptop. Sometimes hdd remains plugged in for a week and sometimes I take my laptop away and I want it to continue booting normally.
In this regard I think that documentation of 'timeout' option should be a separate bug.
