Reboot/shutdown problem: net.eth0 waiting for localmount (50 seconds)

[linuxNewbie.]

Hello,

When I reboot gentoo I get the following message and I have to wait 50 seconds until it reboots/shuts down:

* Bringing down interface lo 
 *   Removing addresses 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (50 seconds) 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (41 seconds) 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (32 seconds) 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (23 seconds) 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (14 seconds) 
 * net.eth0: waiting for localmount (5 seconds) 
 * Bringing down interface eth0

I tried to find some answers on google but there was nothing useful whatsoever.

Not sure if this is related, but this is the first line of my rc.log:

* ERROR: cannot start net.eth0 as fsck would not start

EDIT: This fixes it: /etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop
However, having to do that every time before shutting down/rebooting is slightly annoying.

Is there any other way I could fix this?

Try removing netmount from your init scripts,

rc-update del netmount default

You will need root privileges, and this doesn't actually delete the script, it just tells rc not to run it on start up.
