Hi, I found that initscripts seems to attempt to run fsck on
non-existent devices that appear in /etc/fstab, and different fsck
programs for different filesystem types give different error codes.

What is the easiest way to set up Debian to automatically mount specific
devices if they are present, but not cause a boot failure when they are
absent?

"man fstab" says that if the <passno> digit is other than zero, "fsck"
will try to check that mount point.
