That sounds like it might work, but I'm interested in doing it The Right Way. :) This kind of error needs to be fixed instead of worked around. There doesn't seem to be an existing PR for this, think I should send one? P.S. The system appears to boot fine even if the smb share isn't available. It just skips mounting it whilst burping up a few error messages. P.P.S. Thanks! C. Ulrich -- http://bityard.net
