Comment 29 for bug 431248

Maybe they don't, but there's definitely a difference. I quote a boot with NFS mounted /home

mount.nfs4: DNS resolution failed for leto: Name or service not known
mountall: mount /home [901] terminated with status 32
mountall: Filesystem could not be mounted: /home
One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted:
(ESC for recovery shell)
/home: waiting for leto:/home
 * Setting preliminary keymap
.... and so on

Please, don't let Ubuntu tell that /home is not mounted when that is not true. The same message appears, when the mounting does not succeed. Does that make sense?
