hda2 error -> problem with fstab

[bmike101 at cox.net]

So are you saying that it should look like this: 
 
 
/dev/hda1 / ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0 
#/dev/hda2 / ext3 defaults,noatime 1 1 
/dev/hda4 /home ext3 defaults,noatime 1 1 
/dev/sda1 swap swap sw,pri=1 0 0 
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 
devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0 
none /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0 
# Dynamic entries 
/dev/hda3 /data ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0 
 
But what about the fact that these partitons were not 
previously named this? Would this make a difference? 
 
What about the 'Dynamic entries'? Does that mean/do 
anything? 
 
 Why is it behaving like this now and not before?
