Version: nfs
Severity: normal
Hi all,
I don't know if it is a NFS or mount related problem, but I decided to submit
it to you since I have this problem
for several months.
I have two PC under Debian Unstable : A server (PC-Server) and a client
(PC-Client).
On PC-Client :
- /etc/fstab :
192.168.1.2:/home/knux/amule /mnt/data/amule nfs bg,user,rw,nosuid 0 0
On PC-Server :
- /etc/exports :
/home/knux/amule 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0(rw,sync)
When PC-Client is booting and PC-Server is unreachable (no network connection,
shut down machine, etc.), the boot
process stop when it tries to mount the PC-Server share.
I reproduce this problem on a Debian testing :
http://194.146.225.66/~max/nfs.png
As you can see, the latest line is a punct ".". Actually, I have the "done."
message and nothing else.
The only way I found to resume the boot process is to type "CTRL+C", and no
background mount is done... So I have to
mount manually the NFS shares.
With the same server and a Mandriva 2006 as client, I have no problem with the
same line in /etc/fstab. This problem
occurs on Debian this the "bg" option is specified.
I'm not a developper, but I think that the mount start-up script doesn't
return. If I mount manually with "mount -a"
or "mount /mnt/data/amule" and the network is unreachable, it's OK I have the
error message and I can do another
commands.
Sorry if I submit this bug in the wrong list, I don't know where is really
located the problem ;)
Nevertheless, I hope this report will help you to resolve this problem and
forgive my english... (I'm french ;)).
Good 2006 year ;)

I'm closing this, as it's rather likely it's fixed -- please do reopen if it
should turn out to still be there in unstable.
