BT> /dev/hdc1  /mnt/altroot  ext2    defaults 0 0
BT> /dev/hdc3  /mnt/altvar   ext2    defaults 0 0
BT> /dev/hdc4  /mnt/altusr   ext2    defaults 0 0

Suggestion:

I'd specify "noauto" on these partitions.  It's too easy to
remove the drive, forget to edit /etc/fstab, and reboot...
easily fixed by putting the drive back in or booting to single-
user mode, but a pain nonetheless.
