| Re: [PLUG] Systemd Startup Sequence Question |
Hello, Casey. I highly recommend moving NFS mounts to /etc/fstab with the rest of the filesystems. Add the _netdev option to have them wait for network. Arch has amazing documentation. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NFS#Mount_using_.2Fetc.2Ffstab And don't be put off by systemd. Unit files make for straight-forward service creation. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Herodotus/Rc-Local-Systemd Cheers.
