            Bug ID: 216998
           Summary: sysutils/fusefs-ntfs: man page gives invalid example
                    of fstab entry
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Currently the 'man ntfs-3g' has this part:

       /etc/fstab entry for the above (the sixth and last field has to be zero
       to avoid a file system check at boot time) :

              /dev/sda5 /home/user/mnt ntfs-3g ro,uid=1000 0 0

problem with that is that it lacks the 'late' mount option which will break the
proper BOOT and the system will boot into a single user mode on systems with
separate boot partition (e.g. systems with an encrypted root partition) where
it is impossible for the 'fuse' kernel module to be autoloaded when
/boot/kernel isn't available yet.

This important detail is also not mentioned anywhere else in the manpage.

p.s.: manpages for other 'fusefs-*' packages probably also lack this important
detail.
