For Slackware (non systemd) and my R-PI 2B (also still happily non systemd)
that's how it works, if it's mentioned in /etc/fstab, it's auto mounted.

Unless you add "noauto" to the options ...

Unless a remote file system (e.g. NFS mount, NAS) was asleep/powered down/
not on the network etc. at the time of the PI booting, in which case it
would have failed (and won't automatically retry).

You've got systemd now, no idea what that does about it :)
