I have a workstation with a fresh Karmic install and am seeing that all
my NFS mounts are failing at boot time with this same message:

    One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted:
    . . .
    Press ESC to enter a recovery shell.

Other bug reports using the same strings are marked as duplicates of
this one hence repoirting here.

On trying to mount things manually in the "repair shell" I get:

    mount.nfs: DNS resolution failed for . . .

for the server for each mount.

Seems like mount is being called before DNS look ups are set up.

This problem means Ubuntu workstations just do not work.  Reading the
notes above it seems that this problem is fixed in Lucid but that there
is no intention to even try and fix this in Karmic.  Is this actually
tru, is there no fix for Karmic?
