fstab not respecting _netdev for CIFS mount

[WizkidN]

Hi,

I'd like to automatically mount a CIFS-network-share on boot. It was my understanding that I could do this with the _netdev option, to make sure it waits until I have a connection. It seems however that this is not being done. I end up with the mount failing on boot.

This is what dmesg shows:

As you can see, the link does not become ready until 7.08, but it tries to mount at 4.31/4.32.

This is my fstab line

//192.168.1.112/myshare /home/USER/data        cifs    _netdev,username=USERNAME,password=MYPASSWORD,uid=UID,gid=GID	0 0

Anything I'm doing wrong? I played around with the position of _netdev, but doesn't seem to work >.<

I'm on Fedora 16 - 64bit

Thanks all,

Niels
