Hi Elimar, all,

Thanks for the hints - indeed this could do the work for the nfs mount, but
how do I execute a custom actions.

MY requirements are
        mount nfs conditional (this could be solved with the _netdev option)
        setup proper home directory (the users home is obviously also on nfs)
        enable disable wifi/bluetooth
        start firewall in specific profile (case 1,2,3)
        etc

So my overall question is how you tell systemd what to do - is it possible
to tell it start custom init script - I read there are a lot of ways to
configure it, but heard it is a bit complicated ... xml files and so on.

thanks in advance
