Bug Description

My nfs partition in /etc/fstab fails to mount at boot. My /etc/fstab
line is

  par.ti.com:/u1/home/keith /par/home/keith nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0

I looked in mountall.sh and I think this is the line in question:

  mount -a -t noproc,nfs,nfs4,smbfs,cifs,ncp,ncpfs,coda,ocfs2,gfs

After I boot and run the mount command above by hand, it does not
mount the nfs partition. If I remove the noproc string then it does
mount the nfs partition. I found a debian bug report 381825 with the
same issue where it did not mount the ocfs2 partition unless you
removed the noproc string.

My workaround is to add the following to /etc/rc.local:

  mount -a -t nfs

I have had this issue in 6.10 and 7.04.
