Package: initscripts Version: 2.86.ds1-61 Followup-For: Bug #540291 Hi,
I've seen the same race condition (and implemented the same workaround as it happens) on a Dell PowerEdge 1950 with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5706/5708 gigabit NICs. The NFS mount fails with "no route to host". A second mount from the same server succeeds, as does "mount -a -t nfs" after booting has completed. In my case, the look-up of the IP address for the NFS server is being fulfilled from an entry in /etc/hosts - I suspect that if the lookup were via DNS instead, then the mount operation would succeed (DNS would retry, and by the time it works, the NFS mount would be successful).
