While LFS is capable of mounting network file systems such as NFS, these are not mounted by the mountfs
init script. Network file systems must be mounted after the networking is activated and unmounted before the network goes down. The netfs
bootscript was written to handle both boot-time mounting of network filesystems, if the entry in /etc/fstab
contains the _netdev
option, and unmounting of all network filesystems before the network is brought down.
As the root
user, install the /etc/rc.d/init.d/netfs
bootscript included with the blfs-bootscripts-20231119 package.
