	Is there an equivalent of sun's "noauto" option to supress
	the automatic mounting of a file system included in the fstab file?

	The problem is that a particular filesystem needs to be fsck'd
	but not mounted at boot time.  Apart from fsck'ing it in somewhere like
	the rc.local file, is there a more graceful solution?

					Thanks,  Roman.
