autofs isn't an option for /etc/fstab, it's a completely separate way to specify mounts. For something like an sd card, you would add it to something like /etc/auto.misc instead of /etc/fstab. autofs filesystems are not mounted at boot time, but dynamically, when an application tries to access the contents of the mount point. For example, I have this in /etc/autofs.misc: sdcard -fstype=vfat,gid=video,umask=002 :/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Generic-_SD_MMC_20060413092100000-0\:2-part1 and my sdcards are automatically mounted by attempting to read the contents of /var/autofs/misc/sdcard/.
