Comment 7 for bug 1223745

Hm, so I just upgraded another server with a very similar setup (just home is LVM and / is mounted by label). In that case the nfs mount is considered nowait but seems also counted as local when I look at the summary in mountall.log. Oh, and it does mount the nfs mount under /mnt but doing that on the first host caused the mount to never be done.

...
/mnt/cloud-images is nowait
...
local 4/4 remote 0/0 virtual 13/13 swap 1/1
mounting event handled for /mnt/cloud-images
mounting /mnt/cloud-images
mount.nfs: Failed to resolve server nano: Name or service not known
mountall: mount /mnt/cloud-images [1451] terminated with status 32
Filesystem could not be mounted: /mnt/cloud-images
mountall: Disconnected from Plymouth

The NFS mount does succeed eventually but it seems at least the first attempts are made before network is correctly up. But the main thing seems to be nowait and I cannot say where or why that comes from.
