    For followers, "wibble" is just a dummy name, like "foobar" Commented Jul 5, 2019 at 17:03

    Isn't it better to use something like mnt-[disk name].mount instead of mnt-wibble.mount in the answer so that users would not type that exact name? Commented Oct 30, 2020 at 14:58

    This answer is incomplete. You also need to add the mount unit to the Requires= definition. See answer below. Commented Apr 5, 2021 at 16:46
  • For some reason it doesn't work for me. I'm trying: After=systemd-udevd mnt-usb23.mount and also RequiresMountsFor=/mnt/usb23. But it doesn't work. Commented Aug 8, 2021 at 18:50

    Regardless of the wibblers in the comments, I found this to be a great answer. I came in looking for a quick "systemd wait until.." hack and I left with slightly more knowledge than I bargained for. Bravo. Commented Sep 15, 2022 at 21:58
