Binary package hint: upstart

My server tries to make three NFS mounts, as specified in /etc/fstab.  I
use a host name in the fstab entry and that host name is in my
/etc/hosts.  However on boot, I get these error messages:


mount.nfs: DNS resolution failed for nfshost: Name or service not known
mountall: mount /home/foo/Maildir [622] terminated with status 32

After the boot completes though, the mounts are working.   The
/etc/fstab entry looks like this:

nfshost:/c/backup/foomail       /home/foo/Maildir       nfs
defaults,hard,intr,nolock       0       0

Changing 'nfshost' to the IP address does not help.  I'm guessing its an
upstart boot order problem where the mounts are attempted before
networking is up.  Then, once networking comes up, the mount is retried
and succeeds.
