I have a laptop that spends 90% of it’s time on a single network, and a server with several shares where I store files, like pictures.
For example I have my fstab configured with this line:
//192.168.224.45/Pictures /home/jediwan/Pictures cifs credentials=/home/jediwan/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000,x-systemd.automount 0 0
And it works great as long as I’m on the same network. But if I’m not on my main network the PC struggles to load GNOME and eventually crashes. What do?
EDIT: Adding nofail worked
Same dog bit me recently. I’d swapped a drive out. It was like a week later when I needed to reboot into Debian. Then I had to do some research. 😆
Glad you got it sorted.
