I think mount waits till ipconfig is finished, however the actual link
may not be up at that time(in cases of static ip's).
Waiting for link to become UP can have a adverse side-effect of waiting
forever in cases where cable isn't connected or n/w is not reachable....
retry is the only best option at this moment...
