Mount at boot

Hi,
I want to mount my network share at boot time.
Currently, after I boot I need to run.
sudo mount -a
to mount the share.
Is there a way to do this automatically?
Cheers.
Phil

Are you running Raspbian Jessie ?
What kind of share is it ? NFS ? Windows File Sharing/SMB/CIFS ?
Show us the contents of your /etc/fstab.

My fstab looks like this.
Code: Select all
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/mmcblk0p6 /boot vfat defaults 0 2
/dev/mmcblk0p7 / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1
# a swapfile is not a swap partition, no line here
# use dphys-swapfile swap[on|off] for that
//192.168.1.45/Two_Terror /SMB cifs username=philspitler,password=xxxxxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0
I am mounting an SMB folder and am using Debian.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
Phil

Add this to your fstab line and hand it off to systemd, which will wait to mount it until first access, and by then the network will be ready.
Code: Select all
//192.168.1.45/Two_Terror /SMB cifs username=philspitler,password=xxxxxxxxx,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,x-systemd.automount 0 0
