My machine has been having troubles detaching nfs mounted volumes (6.111 and
6.863) on boot, when they were left attached when the machine went down. It
seems that detach calls umount, which returns an error, as the mountpoint
no longer exists. This error code causes detach to refuse to detach the
directory. The net effect is that /mit/6.111 and /mit/6.863 stick around
after reboot, and when I try to attach them again, attach is bright enough
to figure out that they are already attached and does nothing. If I punt the
two entries from /var/tmp/attachtab manually, then attach once again
functions correctly.
Is this an installation problem on my part, or is this a bug in the netbsd-
athena startup script?
