I am longtime user of Linux Mint. I have just installed Mint 21.1 Cinnamon edition on a newly-built desktop PC.
I have set up a systemd mount unit to automount an nfs share at startup:
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/net-bungle.mount
[Unit]
Description=bungle fileserver
[Mount]
What=bungle:/srv/nfs4/pool2
Where=/net/bungle
Type=nfs
Options=_netdev,vers=4
TimeoutSec=10
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/net-bungle.automount
[Unit]
Description=automount /net/bungle
[Automount]
Where=/net/bungle
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
The .mount unit is present but not enabled; the .automount unit is enabled.
Everything appears to work well: the directory is mounted automatically the first time I access it, with no errors showing in journalctl -u net-bungle.[auto]mount.
The problem occurs when I bookmark a directory inside the nfs mount e.g. /net/bungle/backup in nemo. There is a 15-20 second delay after entering the login password before the desktop comes up (without the bookmark the desktop comes up instantly).
The logs indicate that nemo is trying to access the directory repeatedly at login time before the network is ready, and it causes the automount to fail:

Does anyone know of a way to tell nemo not to access bookmarked directories at startup? nemo --help doesn't show anything useful.
