   I noticed today a slight variation in the fstab entries between a
machine upgraded from FC2 to FC4, one clean installed with FC4 and one
clean installed with FC5. The first showed fstab entries like...

none                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0

whereas the second showed entries like...

/dev/devpts                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0

and the third had entries of the form...

devpts                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0

Is any of these form particularly more correct than the others? Thanks in
advance for any advice.
