Systemd knows that it wants to mount a particular device. It waits for it and eventually times out. At that point, when systemd has timed out, I want it to tell me so I can try to make the device appear. Systemd would then need to check if the device actually has appeared and mount it if it has, or fall back on the current failure handing if it hasn't. Thanks, NeilBrown
