[SOLVED] Mounting with FUSE on system startup

I'm planning to use fusecompress (fusecompress-1 in AUR) to compress
some files under /usr and thus need to make it mount a FUSE filesystem
automatically when the system starts.

I've added
status "..." mount /dev/sda1 /boot
to the end of the init script to mount my /boot partition which works, but
status "..." fusecompress -c lmza -l 9 /storage /mount
does not work.

Re: [SOLVED] Mounting with FUSE on system startup

I think I'm missing something. Why not use fstab at least for /boot?

I don't know about fusecompress but I've mounted other fuse volumes at boot by putting them in fstab, too...

I only added /boot for testing, it is (now) in fstab.
Didn't even think about booting fuse volumes from fstab, do you have an example on how the mount a fuse volume that way?

Re: [SOLVED] Mounting with FUSE on system startup

Adding the following line to /etc/fstab solves it:

fusecompress#/storage  /mount  fuse  user  0  0
