This message is known to cause confusion for people who have no such filesystems. The attached patches test for the presence of NFS filesystems in /etc/fstab, and only print the "Mounting..." message if there are some to mount. >How-To-Repeat: Boot, without NFS filesystems in /etc/fstab, get confused when the system tells you it's mounting some anyway. :) >Fix: The following patches have been tested on 5.0-Current and 3.4-Stable. The 5.0 version will certainly work on 4.0-Stable as well. 5.0 version: --- /usr/src/etc/rc Tue Feb 29 20:41:52 2000 +++ /etc/rc Sat Mar 25 00:09:24 2000 @@ -200,10 +206,12 @@ ;; esac -# Mount NFS filesystems. -echo -n "Mounting NFS file systems" -mount -a -t nfs -echo . +# Mount NFS filesystems if present in /etc/fstab. +if mount -d -a -t nfs | grep nfs >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then + echo -n "Mounting NFS file systems" + mount -a -t nfs + echo . +fi # Whack the pty perms back into shape. # 3.4 version: --- /usr/src/etc/rc Mon Jan 10 18:13:38 2000 +++ /etc/rc Fri Mar 24 23:50:37 2000 @@ -172,9 +172,12 @@ network_pass1 fi -echo -n "Mounting NFS file systems" -mount -a -t nfs -echo . +# Mount NFS filesystems if present in /etc/fstab. +if mount -d -a -t nfs | grep nfs >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then + echo -n "Mounting NFS file systems" + mount -a -t nfs + echo . +fi # Whack the pty perms back into shape. chflags 0 /dev/tty[pqrsPQRS]* >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
