RHEL 8 hangs on boot missing disk in fstab

my /etc/fstab UUID=12345abcdef /data xfs defaults 0 0 I thought the *0 0* part, one of those, meant skip disk checking so during boot if the disk wasn't there the OS would be ok with it and continue. In RHEL 8.8 I have that entry in /etc/fstab but I have that disk manually removed from the system. Redhat firsts does the systemd *waiting on whatever* for 1m30s then drops to *hit Ctrl-D for maintenance or enter root password*. I enter root password, comment out that entry in /etc/fstab and reboot and things are fine. Is there a way to configure RHEL-8 so it doesn't pause for the minute and 30 seconds, and does not drop to maintenance ? Can it just print a boot message, finish booting, don't delay for more than 2 seconds?
