Hi all! I've got a Venus DS3R Pro2 external drive unit with two drives set up as RAID-1, and the raid volume is formatted as ext4. it is listed in /etc/fstab as: UUID=f787c482-fb92-4ba7-87d6-cfeaef6b64c2 /mnt/backup ext4 defaults,users 0 2 if the external unit (which attaches via e-sata) is NOT powered on when the system boots, it hangs and drops to a maintenance prompt. I'd sure like to have it defer that particular mount and continue to boot. I've been perusing various mount man pages, but don't see any ext4 (or non-filesystem-specific) opotions to allow this. Can any of you offer helpful advice in this matter? Thanks!
