Is there a way to specify mount options for partitions that are *created*
during installation (i.e. those specified in the 'partitions' section
rather than those specified in the 'manualFstab' section)?  I have not
been able to trace it all the way through the installer code to find out a
definitive answer.  Setting 'options' within a 'partitions' entry has no
effect:

       'partitions' => [
                         {
                           'mntpoint' => '/',
                           'size' => 523089,
                           'type' => 387,
                           'options' => 'rw,suid,dev,exec,auto,nouser,async'
                         }, etc.

and neither does adding a manualFstab entry for a mount point defined in
'partitions':

       'partitions' => [
                         {
                           'mntpoint' => '/boot',
                           'size' => 19089,
                           'type' => 131
                         },
       ...
       'manualFstab' => [
                          {
                            'mntpoint' => '/boot',
                            'options' => 'ro,nosuid,nodev,noexec,auto,nouser,sync'
                          },

g_auto_install doesn't help because there is (AFAICT) no way to set mount
options from within the GUI.

On a more general note, is there any comprehensive documentation on DrakX
and the contents of the auto-install file.  The 'kickstart' page
(http://www.linux-mandrake.com/drakx/auto_inst.html) is still very
incomplete and contains some entries like:

"1.4.11. printer

Various parameters for configuring your printer, being local, remote,
remote SMB, remote NCP,..."

which don't actually document the options.
