Is there a reason why Anaconda create /etc/fstab entries on a fresh
installation of Fedora 33?
Food for thought.
Probably because OS-related mountpoints need to be in the fstab for the initrd and other
related boot services.
An automount that requires networking is best left out. I prefer to never touch fstab on
my systems, leaving the installer to create them. Mostly because automation is paramount
and fstab is a monolithic config file, and modifying it with tools like puppet or Ansible
can leave it in a bad state. Systemd units can be dropped in and you can set up
dependencies with the systemd units.
