Binding a partition or drive after fstab

Question

I have modified the fstab to automatically mount a partition and set up an aufs on a read-only filesystem and a folder in partition. But somehow in the boot up, I saw that it couldn't find the folder in that partition. I have certain programs that start on boot up and it requires the aufs filesystem. I was wondering if there is a way of mounting after fstab.

Answer 1

I was able to solve the problem by creating an init script that will run at the begining of the init or upstart. I have to create a file in /etc/rc2.d/ and name it like this : S(number){name} where (number) determine the order of the execution o the script and {name} is the name of the script. Assigning a small value on {number} means it is going to be executed before the other scripts that have a higher {number}. Simply editing /etc/rc.local have a 15% chance it will work because it will run AFTER each run level .

What I do : I simply change the number of the filename of this file: S99rc.local which is located at /etc/rc2.d/ to S10.rc.local and I write the mount commands in /etc/rc.local file.
