From c73830758a14862ec221a4e38e991de5f41484b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xin LI Date: Tue, 7 Jun 2011 18:48:49 +0000 Subject: Add a special mount option "failok" to indicate that the administrator wants the system to proceed to boot without bailing out into single user mode, even when the file system can not be successfully mounted. This option is implemented in mount(8) and not passed into kernel.
