fstab mount on reboot not working

[stumax]

Hi,

So I've been through all of the suggestions since my post on the 8th Jan , so far still the same.

@Enferax , you mention you added vers=3 to you're fstab and reverted the xbian-net.conf file to the original;. I tried this, also tried adding nfsvers=3 to fstab still no joy.

Any chance you could post what you have currently in your fstab file please ?

Maybe I need to try vers=2 , vers=1 etc , before trying i'd like to confirm that what I have in fstab is correct.. I'm not really clear on what version I should be using but starting at 3 and going down sems sensible.

For the record I'm on xbian v1.0 B2 ..

Thank you all very much !
Stu

@stumax:
As you are mounting a cifs filesystem and not nfs, defining the version will not bring you anywhere.
If you want to mount nfs "nfsstat" will give you the version number.

An example of my fstab entries:
192.168.0.30:/mnt/HD/HD_a2/ /media/media nfs nouser,noatime,vers=3,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0

You could try the quick and dirty version by adding "mount -a" into the rc.local. The Problem is, that this is bypassing the start scripts.

for you I didn't expect nothing else as you are CIFS, not NFS. with you I counted on the changed script as the default was one has there clear bug for one specific case and that is exactly "almost plain B2 + ONLY CIFS in fstab".

to move forward with this one for you I would need the things you never posted actually. output of /run/upstart-ev.log for start then I ask for more if needed. or send also "tail /var/log/upstart/xbian-net.log

Thanks mk01 ... I wasn't sure where to pick up on the thread from.

Requested output is here - http://pastebin.com/7xaWeGnK

When I try - sudo mount -avs -t cifs

The response is -

mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.1.1,unc=\\192.168.1.1\router,user=******,,domain=WORKGROUP,pass=*****​***
nothing was mounted

But looking at the mount directory the drive does actually appear to be mounted.

Thanks,
Stu

Thanks, that makes sense, I couldn't get this to work with nfs,so it seems I must use cifs.

Cheers,
