Your fstab is OK. I don't exactly understand the problem. When you boot fsck will run automatically if the system did not correctly shut down. This is done *before* disks are mounted rw, so there's no way you will see the "(NO WRITE)" message.
If system was not correctly shut down, fsck will run, and it *will* (and should) slow down system boot process. So, is it the problem that fsck is running *every* time you boot? Or is it that you get this "(NO WRITE)" message when you run it manually? 2005/5/24, Jonathan M.
