It's probably due to the new boot-up routines, which attempt to do the mounting before the network has been brought up. It's still a bug, though, since mounting of network connections should be delayed, not skipped.
The workaround is to put a "manual" mount command into the /etc/rc.local file, which won't run until after the network has been brought up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/508186 Title: Samba fails to mount at boot works later -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
