I wish the /etc/fstab file to fit in 80 columns if possible, so that
it is more readable in console. It usually does not because the
installation program seems to think "defaults" is a required option,
but in fact this keyword is only useful when it's alone, so that there
is actually a fourth field. When there are more mount options this
"defaults" keyword is completely redundant and useless.
The following patch removes the use of "defaults" only when there are more
options to follow, it also removes a tab from the banner line so that
it fits in 80 columns.
