Automount NFSv3 problems

I am mounting my DroboFS (which is NFSv3) into an ArchLinux box.

If I mount manually it works:
mount -t nfs 192.168.2.101:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Media/Movies/ /mnt/movies

From /etc/fstab:
192.168.2.101:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Media/Movies/   /mnt/movies   nfs   rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr       0 0

Any ideas?
Thanks

Re: Automount NFSv3 problems

Maybe your network is not online when your system trys to mount fstab entries while booting?
If you're using networkmanager try networkmanager-dispatcher-netfs instead of loading netfs via daemon in rc.conf.

Also you can give autofs a try, which is much more comfortable, if your share isn't always online itself.
