Bug#551821: initscripts: fails to mount NFS shares at boot
I have the same problem and neither setting ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no in /etc/default/rcS nor using bg as a mount option in /etc/fstab solves it. Both of these lead to the following error message, though my server name really exists: mount.nfs: Failed to resolve server server-name: Name or service not known When I change the name to the corresponding IP address, the error is "No route to host". It seems that the network is not really up yet when /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs is executed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#551821: initscripts: fails to mount NFS shares at boot
Hi, this is the same Bug as #485659. It is probably not really a bug but poorly documented. 1. If you use NFS Root or required NFS shares you are supposed to use the following anyway: /etc/default/rcS ASYNCMOUNTNFS=no This solves also the mount at boot time of more unimportant shares 2. For unimportant/not system required NFS shares you should use the option "bg" in the fstab Regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
