The bottom line: There is no problem even if flashdrives/cameras etc
are in fstab but not present- you simply get the error logged

Well, there is a definite problem in my case (Debian unstable on i386).
Error code 1 on fsck gets an error logged, but doesn't stop the boot
process.
Upgrading dosfstools past 3.0.1 caused an error code greater than 1,
which triggers the stop of the boot process.
I don't understand why initscripts tries to fsck a non-existent device.
Maybe I should file a bug against initscripts.
I had initially filed a bug against dosfstools but had no response:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=562536
I would just like to have USB flash drives that may or may not be
plugged into machines that aren't switched on all the time, and I would
like them to be mounted if they're plugged in when the machine is
powered on, and for the machine to boot anyway if the USB flash drive is
not present.
Regards,
Arthur.
