I installed xbian on the Pi in order to use it as a network music player with mpd. Everything works fine besides one thing:
I mount a folder from my NAS on the Pi with this /etc/fstab entry.
//192.168.1.2/alles/Archiv /home/xbian/musik cifs auto,rw,uid=mpd,credentials=/etc/samba/mpd.credentials 0 0
When I sudo mount -a the mount is working, when I reboot the Pi it's not, I have to sudo again. Any idea, why this is not working the way it's supposed to be?

Checked that the white space in the fstab file is correct? v I've fallen foul of that in *tab files before but on other systems not a Pi.

First guess would be that networking is not up when fstab is evaluated. How did you configure networking? Are you connected via wifi or cable? Content of /etc/network/interfaces might help other people helping you.
Do the logs mention something about samba or mount?
dmesg | grep -e mount -e samba -e smb -e cifs
My guess too. I NFS mount a similar distro and it usually takes a fair amount of time to pop up on the desktop: I surmise it keeps retrying...

Cable, and yes, networking isn't up. I placed the mount command in /etc/rc.local and now it's working.
