fstab Question

I've been trying to get my other hard drives mounted automatically when
I boot the computer. With some very kind help from those on this list I
got it almost there.It won't mount automatically on boot. It's very
simple to mount them manually but I would rather not have to. below is
the relevant portion of the fstab:

UUID=b06ff899-4a37-4613-9020-5ada5959c8b9 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0
/dev/sdc /media/floppy0 auto user,atime,noauto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0
/dev/sda3 /media/SuSE auto users,atime,noauto,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
/dev/sdb1 /media/NTFS auto users,atime,noauto,rw,nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0

The two drives/mount points in question are sda1 [ XP ] and sdb3 [
OpenSusSE home partition ]. I notice that the only difference in the two
and all the others are the last three parameters, nodev, noexec, and
nosuid.

IF I edit to make these parameters the same will I screw something up?

OR

Will it make the drives mount at boot time?
