@kris: It is obvious that you are a beginner and did not understand what this is about. Sorry to say so. My problem has nothing whatsoever to do with /etc/fstab
Please try and read again what I wrote. Please understand that the mount options that I need are simply not understood anymore by the "nfs- common" package due to some stupid unnecessary changes that were done in Ubuntu 8.04 (everything worked fine with Ubuntu 7.10). And because of that it really doesn't matter where I put those options, e.g. onto the command line or into /etc/fstab If you want to reproduce my problem please read my original posting again and try the steps I wrote there: Quote from there: "So it all boils down to the fact that this command (regardless how odd and pointless it may look): sudo mount -t nfs -o rw,udp,mountvers=2,port=4242 localhost:/smb /smb ... works tip top on Ubuntu 7.10 ... but does not work at all on Ubuntu 8.04" -- Ubuntu 8.04: /sbin/mount.nfs no longer understands certain (standard?) mount options https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/251923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
