Alternately, create an entry in /etc/fstab allowing users to

if the disk is not present during boot time, you will dropped into a
single user shell.
You can add the option "noauto" to the fstab options column for the
file-system to avoid mounting it at boot time.
Secondly, you should prevent the filesystem check being applied to
this file-system at boot time by putting a 0 in the fsck column.
