Hi Ritesh,

oh yes, the fs variable is initialized before the loops are starting, together 
with the MOUNT_RESULT:

        # Now let's mount
        log_daemon_msg "Mounting network filesystems"
        MOUNT_RESULT=1
        fs=

And I guess functionality is good after removing the “break” command. I just 
don’t exactly know how the MOUNT_RESULT could summarize the result of all 
single mounts. Setting it to 0 after the first successful mount will just not 
catch if a following mount fails since the value would still be 0 (and I guess 
the exit code of the script should be an error code if one single mount is 
failing, right?). Maybe it could be done by touching a temporary file on the 
first failed mount and if we have that in the end setting MOUNT_RESULT to 1 and 
removing the temporary file again before calling log_end_msg? 

Else it would be necessary to get rid of the variable scope problem :)

Best regards,
Torben
