However, in that case THE ERROR MESSAGE DOES NOT TELL WHICH MOUNT PRODUCED THE ERROR, BECAUSE '-v' WAS NOT SPECIFIED IN /etc/rc. >How-To-Repeat: Boot the Box in an environment whith many NFS mounts >Fix: Use mount -v -a -t nfs in /etc/rc Better: modify mountd to produce sensible error messages... >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
