Removing NFS Mounts

 General Information

Introduction

Another problem with used SGIs with an old IRIX installation is (besides the root-password) that some boxes need an unusual long time to boot. This may indicate that the machine formerly was member of a NIS domain and tries to mount some NFS directories. This page will explain how to get rid of these directories.

Removing NFS Directories

All mountable filesystems are recorded in /etc/fstab, so you only have to remove all NFS entries there.
