A couple of weeks ago I switched my gcc profile over and rebuilt everything with emerge -e system and emerge -e world. Now, when I restart the computer (any of the three on my LAN), the NFS shares listed in /etc/fstab are not automatically mounted. I can mount them manually with no errors. Here's an example of one of my /etc/fstab files:
camille ~ # cat /etc/fstab # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/fstab,v 1.18.4.1 2005/01/31 23:05:14 vapier Exp $ # # noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't # needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage # efficiency). It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to # switch between notail / tail freely. # # See the manpage fstab(5) for more information. # <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass> # NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts. /dev/sda2 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2 /dev/sda6 / ext3 noatime 0 1 /dev/sda7 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/store/ xfs noatime 0 0 #/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ext3 noatime 0 1 /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0 carter:/backup /backup/carter nfs bg,hard 0 0 carter:/usr/portage /usr/portage nfs bg,hard 0 0 carter:/home/michael/camera /mnt/Pictures nfs bg,hard 0 0 nfs bg,hard 0 0 #carter:/home/michael/BizarreBits /home/michael/BizarreBits/ nfs bg,hard 0 0 catherine:/backup /backup/catherine nfs bg,hard 0 0 # NOTE: The next line is critical for boot! proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for # POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink). # (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will # use almost no memory if not populated with files) shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0 I can say at the command prompt: mount carter:/backup /backup/carter and it works fine without any errors. Why are these not being mounted at boot? Netmount starts at the default runlevel, but my nfs shares are not mounting...
