Comment 29 for bug 275451

I am interested to know if adding 'sleep 45' before 'mount -a' in rc.local will work for EmonkIA....

At first I was under the assumption that it wasn't working with mount -a in rc.local. As I am under the impression that the boot sequence has changed, I was wondering if rc.local was also affected. To test this I added 'sleep 10' before 'mount -a' in rc.local, which did not work. I stepped this up in 5second increments until I landed at 'sleep 45' which allows the rc.local script time for the network to be loaded before attempting the mount. This arrangement works on one out of my three identical workstations I am testing this with.

On one of the other workstations a simple 'sleep 10' before 'mount -a' in rc.local worked, as someone referenced in either this or one of the other bug reports on this issue.
