Hallo,

is there a way to configure fstab in such a way that,
when booting the system:
- when the external hd is connected: mount the external hd
- when the external hd is not connected: don't wait for a user
intervention, just continue.

i'm using 

nofail, auto

in fstab,
which doesn't seem to work

mvg,
Wim
