Well, I disagree. If a device what should be present during boot is missing when the boot take place, this is an error that should be reported by fsck. The last number in the fstab entry (the fsck order, currently 2) indicate that fsck should take place during boot, and also indicate that the device should be present. If this is not the intention, change the 2 to 0 to disable fsck during boot. If it should not be automatically mounted during boot, a noauto flag should be added to the options too.
