Package: initramfs-tools
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when I looked for the last time (a few months ago), fstab entries
parsed by initramfs-tools or in initramfs MUST NOT contain the
"nofail" option. This is kind of surprising since some other fstab
entries MUST contain the "nofail" option to avoid systemd from bombing
out on boot.

This inconsistence makey it necessary to think in which lines to put
the nofail option and in which lines not.

Please consider tweaking initramfs-tools so that "nofail" can be in
all lines, with it being ignored in initramfs.

Greetings
Marc
