strange /proc mount definition in fstab...

Hello,

  Using FAI 3.1.8 (from Etch) to install some HP servers, I get a
strange /proc definition in /etc/fstab :

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
#file sys  mount point type   options   dump   pass
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1   / ext3defaults  01   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2   none  swaprw00   
none /proc procrw,nosuid,noexec  00   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p9   /appliext3defaults,nodev  02   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p8   /log  ext3defaults,nodev,nosuid,noexec  0   
 2   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p7   /opt  ext3defaults,nodev  02   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p6   /tmp  ext3defaults,nodev,nosuid  02   
/dev/cciss/c0d0p5   /var  ext3defaults,nodev  02   

The rw,nosuid,noexec options cause /etc/init.d/mountall.sh to give
a 'failed' status at boot... Is it correct ?

Fred.

The red failed message during boot is caused by the string none. FAI
3.2 now uses proc instead of none.

AFAIK all the virtual filesystems are now handled in an init script, so
putting procfs and sysfs into fstab is not strictly necessairy anymore...
