[ILUG] /etc/fstab -what is /dev/pts ?

[Dermot Gorman]

Could anyone tell me what the /dev/pts filesystem is in my 
/etc/fstab file? Every time my system boots it complains 
about /dev/pts not being supported by the kernel. Also what 
is the /proc line in my /etc/fstab file for? If i remove it 
and reboot it seems to prevent me from connecting to my ISP?
