[CentOS-devel] Vagrant centos/7 v1811.01 breaks nfs at boot

Hi John-Paul,

I think you have a more generic problem, not something affecting just 
the Vagrant images.

We'll go back to using XFS in starting with 1812, but I wouldn't rely on 
timing to see if NFS is going to work or not - that's too fragile.  I 
wasn't able to find an fstab in the Ansible playbooks your repo points 
to, perhaps you could provide a direct link?

Are you already using the _netdev mount option in your fstab?  That 
should make sure that these mounts are only attempted after the network 
is working.  This should be mentioned by 'man systemd-mount', didn't use 
NFS myself though.

Best regards,
Laurențiu
