Now, what about the lines for the binds that immediately follow the network device? Do the binds still operate even if the network device isn't online yet? In other words, does the mounting of devices processing stop until the line in fstab with _netdev in its options field is processed, then the binds run? If so, then this is the answer to a humble man's prayer. I've been wrestling with this literally for months.
