Even if fstab hasn't been edited yet, you can still, from the command 
line, mount the drive, and what type it is, and when that mount option 
works, -then- edit fstab and put it there.

ie: for a samba share, I do something like
mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.2/share-name /path/to/mount/to

but, that's only when needed.

my fstab looks something like:

: > less /etc/fstab
/dev/hda3            /                    reiserfs   
acl,user_xattr        1 1
/dev/hda1            /boot                reiserfs
