Thanks for the reply, Heiko.

It appears that this isn't quite enough to get a service running in DL.
In addition to creating a script based on skeleton (which I called
nfsmount)
and installing it using insserv, I found I also had to add the following
lines to /etc/sysconfig/config

# Mount NFS directories specified in fstab?
START_NFSMOUNT=no

The NFSMOUNT service will then be listed in the Services section of
the setup command. You can then enable it and it will take effect.

I've included the contents of the /etc/init.d/nfsmount file that I
created, in case it can be of use to anyone. Permissions for this file
should be set to -rwx------ as with other service scripts.
