Julian, can we try doing this the 'proper' systemd way just to test to see if something else is going wrong there? Backup your fstab and then modify it to contain the following: # systemd mount CASSIOPEIA on NAS 192.168.1.3:/volume1/CASSIOPEIA /media/julian/CASSIOPEIA nfs auto,x-systemd.automount,x-systemd.device-timeout=10 0 0 We'll just do one NFS mount at a time to start with. This'll specify automatic mount at boot rather than on-demand, hand control to systemd and specify a maximum wait of 10 seconds in case something does go wrong during the mount. systemd should automatically take care of the boot order now it's aware that it's responsible for handling them so we shouldn't need to set the wait-online.service (but we will if we have to later). Unmount any of your NFS shares first, and make systemd aware of the changes: sudo systemctl daemon-reload Check the new systemd managed mount-point: sudo systemctl status /media/julian/CASSIOPEIA Restart the unit and check again: sudo systemctl restart /media/julian/CASSIOPEIA sudo systemctl status /media/julian/CASSIOPEIA You should see a successfully loaded unit and have a live filesystem mounted under /media/julian/CASSIOPEIA - check and see. If there is an issue the status command will tell you what's wrong. If all is well, reboot and make sure everything works as expected. If not, report back. Can I also check to make sure you haven't got anything conflicting lurking around like autofs for example? dpkg -i | grep autofs Purge it if you have it installed - unless you specifically know you need it for something of course.
