Ah ok, thx. Personally I'm not used to changing the init program of my distrib but indeed it's possible. So the problem can happen in Trusty and in Xenial too with the condition to switch to upstart in the Xenial case.

The trailing "/" has been removed and in this case it's a bad idea. The mount at boot just fails because "client_mountpoint=" is not correct. In fact, the problem is in src/mountall.c around line 569: char *colon; dequote (mnt->device); /* If our device name is in host:/path format, as is * commonly used for network filesystems, don't strip * trailing slashes if this is the entire path. We * look for the colon starting from the end, so that * we correctly handle IPv6 addresses for the host * part. */ if ((colon = strrchr (mnt->device,':')) != NULL && colon[1] == '/') strip_slashes (colon + 2); else strip_slashes (mnt->device); // <==== bad idea in the specific case of fuse.ceph filesystem It's Ubuntu Xenial with mountall version 2.54ubuntu1.
