[etc]
I've fought with this a couple of times myself. Apparently the
problem is with NFS locking -- NFS needs portmap, but the portmap
gets started *after* the init scripts mount all the NFS file
systems. You can fix it by either changing the init scripts to
start the the port mapper (rpc.portmap) before mounting NFS
(mount -at nfs) or you can add a "nolock" option to the NFS
mounts in your fstab. The init script fix is trivial in
Slackware (just edit /etc/rc.d/rc.inet2) but RedHat init is so
complicated I just blew it off and used the "nolock" option.
