for what it worth, a fstab.d would have been something usable... :) |
21 |
|
22 |
but if you are providing netifrc like configuration, there is no need |
23 |
to split configuration between the layout and the fstab, everything |
24 |
should be at one place if possible. |
25 |
|
26 |
maybe we can have some intermediate options... to bridge the gap, but |
27 |
all are in the scope of conf.d, examples: |
28 |
|
29 |
eval $(openrc-mount-helper-fstab ${NAME} /mnt/auto) |
30 |
|
31 |
or... builtin |
32 |
|
33 |
mount_driver_\${NAME}=fstab # will call eval |
34 |
$(openrc-mount-helper-${openrc-mount-driver-\${NAME}} ${NAME} "$@") |
35 |
mount_mountpoint=/mnt/auto |
36 |
|
37 |
but this fstab usage is optional. |
