Yes, this works - removing the pass and dump parameters for ReiserFs disks stops the forced checking of the partitions.
However, having defaults,errors=remount-ro still causes an error: unrecognised mount options. So I guess the errors=remount-ro bit is being passed to reiserfs as I don't get this message when I remove that bit.
