Hi Steve,
I think that this issue has been discussed in prior releases of
 Fedora....you can scan the archives for more detailed information.  If my
memory serves me correctly, I think that the initial part of fstab for
static devices is preserved and you should put your entries there.  The
non-static devices are added/appended to the end of fstab and upon reboot
and any entries added to that portion will be "flushed."
When mounting windows partitions in prior installs of Fedora I would put
them immediately after the "logvol" entries and thereafter had no problems.
 This should work for you with FC8.  I hope that this is of some assistance
to you.  Regarding fuse partitions I am sorry that I have no experience to
offer to you in this area.
