After a lot +of search today I finally figured it out thanks to the `bug report +<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812826>`_ and the `patch +<http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/031932.html>`_ +which adds *x-systemd.requires* and other option to systemd. + +So basically you can add additional ordering information to the +*.mount* files generated by *systemd-fstab-generator* by adding a +*ordering.conf* file to path +*/etc/systemd/system/usr-local-bin.mount.d/* path with following +contents. + +.. code-block:: ini + + [Unit] + After=home.mount + +And that is it, now *usr-local-bin.mount* will be mounted after +*home.mount* is activated. + +I couldn't find this information directly in related manpages like +*systemd.mount* or *systemd.automount*. Also this information is not +directly available in search results!. |
