Does it do the same if you mount the same partition normally (i.e. not

That also fails. Same error message.

Unlike the nfsroot code at least my version of mount
does not use nfs version 2 as the default. I had to force
a v2 nfs mount attempt with mount -o nfsvers=2 ...

Would it be a good idea to change the default nfs version
nfsroot uses? I think nfsroot and mount defaults should
be identical.

BTW: Google shows some related old threads, e.g. "Madhan" writes on
2 Aug. 2001 06:55 "There has been a change in the NFS Client
behaviour in Linux Kernel 2.4.3 onwards. There are 2 issues here,
1. as traces show new clients expect link count '1' and NetWare
NFS has been sending '0' for volumes. ..."

cu,
Knut
