The first is if I use Yast to set-up an NFS mount in fstab then on start-up
openSuse tries to connect to the NFS mount _before_ the network is started.
Only after 4-5 minutes does mount.nfs timeout and shortly after NetworkManager
starts up to make the connection. I find it hard to believe this is the
correct behaviour and that no-one else seems to have hit this?
That's weird, it shouldn't happend. AFAIK, NFS volumes are supposed to be mounted later by the system.
Anyway, a surefire workaround would be to use automount. This mounts them when they are accessed and unmounts them automatically after a while.
This is an example configuration:
0. become root
su -
1. Make a directory
mkdir /mnt/automount
2. Add this to /etc/auto.master
/mnt/automount /etc/auto.nfs
3. Create /etc/auto.nfs
nfs -fstype=nfs server:/directory/that/you/export
4. start autofs
/etc/init.d/autofs start
5. enable autofs to start at boot
chkconfig --add autofs
6. see if it works
ls /mnt/automount/nfs
