Hi,

I do not always have all my machines powered on and when i power up
my main Squeeze machine, the boot sequence waits forever to mount the
NFS mount points because machine 2 is powered down for example.

I put "defaults" in my /etc/fstab in the NFS line.

Is there a better entry to use?

Try adding ,nofail after defaults. I works for me on some plugable
usb drive. It probably will work for NFS. There is some place where
you can tweek the timeout value but the default worked for me.
