Argh, this is indeed a tremendously bad default. So far I had the impression that "auto" is for "must be present for booting", and "allow-hotplug" is for "bring it up when present, but don't block on it on boot". But if the installer always uses allow-hotplug, then I think that completely defies trying to make any difference between the two. Guus, what is the difference from your POV? It seems to me that this isn't cleanly defined. > And mounting remote file systems under systemd requires a properly > hooked up network-online.target. > Which means, for the vast majority of users with remote (NFS) mounts we > currently ship a broken setup. Indeed, and I don't see how this could even be fixed automatically with package maintainer scripts, as we don't know whether the admin configured a-h deliberately or whether it was put there by the installer. :-( Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org)
