Hi all,
The problem:
I'm having a problem getting an iscsi volume to be mounted on boot.

What does work:
I can mount the volume/disk "/etc/sda1" after booting with no problem.

Discoverys:
I have found that using the fstab option "defaults,_netdev" does what it
says it does and only try's to mount the drive after networking is up.
However the drive is not available when the "netfs" script is run
via "/etc/rcX.d/S25netfs" so it cannot mount the drive. If I move netfs to
be launched later say "/etc/rcX.d/S60netfs" the drive is mounted.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Ralph

One more thing, I will be using this SAN drive for holding some VM's (using
Vmware) and Vmware installs the start script as "S19vmware" so the drive
will never be mounted before vmware starts.
Obviously this is a problem.
