noauto usually means, do not automatically mount at bootup.


I noticed my gentoo install recommends doing the noauto thing so that the
boot partition in general remains unmounted...

I hadn't heard that there was a boot partitiion corruption risk but hey
I've only been using linux for ~4 yrs. Still got a lot to learn.

I have mine mounted read-only, which sounds like a far more intuitive solution.
