fails to mount on boot.

the trick is to KILL networkmanager and let the default system networking init.d script take over. if networkmanager is the one bringing up the network interface, the mountnfs.sh script never gets run.

sudo update-rc.d -f NetworkManager remove
sudo update.rc-d -f networking remove
sudo update.rc-d -f networking defaults

then reboot. or service stop networkmnager and service start networking. presto, filesystem is automounted.

this is a bug in the networkmanager package, it's not picking up system ifup / ifdown hooks. that's it.
