Is there a way to mount a cdrom or remote file systems using fstab but not having it crash out the system. example if i have a nfs share set up to another machine and that machine goes down the next time i reboot my system the machine hangs when it cannot find the share and will not allow me to do anything and i have to hook up a monitor and keyboard to get it back the same happens when there is an error on a cd rom

Use the background (-b or bg) and interruptible (-i or intr) options, along with a reasonable timeout. See
man mount_nfs for the specifics.
