Background NFS Mounts

[Brian White <bcwhite@verisim.com>]

I'm having a problem with my computer hanging for large amounts of time
when it is not connected to the network because of some NFS mounts it does.

I've tried adding options so it would try this in the background instead
of holding up the boot, but no luck.  Here is what I have now...

###############################################################################
#
# Network filesystem mounts
#
ftp:/home/ftp           /home/ftp       nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix
cvs:/var/cvs            /var/cvs        nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix
home:/home/verisim      /home/verisim   nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix
fax:/var/spool/fax      /var/spool/fax  nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix
gnats:/export/gnats     /var/lib/gnats  nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix
gate:/export/share      /usr/share      nfs     bg,soft,intr,posix

Can anybody offer any advice?

                                          Brian
