NFS mount is stalling during boot

Hi there,

I am trying to figure out a way to fix this and not quite finding a 
solution that works.

Mounting an NFS drive is stalling the boot when the drive is 
unreachable.  I want my linux host to still boot even if the drive is 
not reachable.  distro is Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS

here is the fstab entry

--- entry ---
<ip>:/mnt/DroboFS/Shares/Music     /media/Music  nfs 
auto,noatime,nolock,bg,soft,nfsvers=3,intr,tcp,actimeo=1800 0 0
--- entry ---

during the boot process the message claims "(2 of 4) A start job is 
running for /media/Music" (27s / no limit)"

Cheers
