Now that fstab unit generation is moving to a generator, I read the code in systemd.git. I discovered it does not calculate dependencies (what file systems to mount first) at all. It just sets very simple befores= and afters=. However, the proper dependencies DO show when I do systemctl show (resp. mount unit). Thus my question: Would it be correct to say that the generator I wrote absolutely does not need to calculate parent file system dependencies, because some black magic inside systemd / systemctl knows to figure out the parent file system dependencies thus guarantees mounting in the right order?? Thanks in advance. </BODY> </HTML>
