Title:
  mountall does not honor nobootwait flag on /var/* and /usr/*
  filesystems

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mountall

  For very valid reasons, mountall always waits on /usr/* and /var/*
  remote filesystems.

  That said, /var/opt/* are valid FHS filesystems that are not vital to
  the system. In order to not get the boot stuck on such remote
  filesystems, we tried using the "nobootwait" flag, but it is ignored
  on /usr/* and /var/* remote filesystems. This is believed to be a bug,
  since this behaviour should be possible to be forced.

  In general, it would also be a good idea to make /var/opt/*
  filesystems default to TAG_NOWAIT since they are not vital to the
  system.
