With a new f17-branched install, it does not seem possible to auto-mount nfs directories at boot. netfs.service does not appear to exist - or at least be installed, and nothing else appears to run mount -a, so I end up having to do it by hand.
% rpm -q systemd systemd-44-4.fc17.x86_64
netfs.service missing is intentional; this should be handled without it. What's your fstab look like? Are you using /etc/init.d/network, or NetworkManager?
% grep nfs /etc/fstab super:/home /home nfs defaults 0 0 Of /etc/init.d/network / NetworkManager, the VM's using whatever's default, NetworkManager is running.
What happens if you do: ln -s ../NetworkManager-wait-online.service /lib/systemd/system/remote-fs-pre-target.wants/NetworkManager-wait-online.service ?
After creating the appropriate directory, the ensconced symlink appears to have done the job, thanks!
