Sorry for the delay in response, and for misassigning it. joe@w1:~$ dpkg -l |grep nfs-common ii nfs-common 1:1.2.5-3ubuntu3.1 NFS support files common to client and server
I'm running Ubuntu precise (12.04.2 LTS) root@w1:/var/log/upstart# cat statd.log UPSTART_EVENTS = local-filesystems started portmap-wait stop/waiting Seems normal And no mounting logs. It looks to be a race condition at startup. I think it's trying to mount the filesystems before the network and statd have started up and then hangs at the "Press blah to continue" dialogue. That would explain the statd not running and the mount.nfs: Network is unreachable entries. If I remove the entries from fstab and add them into /etc/rc.local then everything works fine, which would lend some creedence to the theory. Note that I have put _netdev in the fstab line, which should make mount wait until the network is available. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help? -- joe. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157171 Title: NFS mounts in /etc/fstab fail To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1157171/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
