Not to be pedantic, but it's '0 1' for the / partition :-)
Others have referred you to the man pages that describe these
settings, but what isn't obvious is that these are for ext2/3
filesystems only. Field 5 is used by dump/restore which only
works on ext2/3.
If you use reiserfs, these fields must be '0 0' as reiser can do
the right thing at mount time by itself.
The same goes for all other filesystems (cdroms, tmpfs, udev,
etc etc)
