According to my boot log, portmap (including rpc.statd) is started correctly by the init scripts: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8 Thu Jul 12 19:24:07 2007: DHCPOFFER from 192.168.0.1 Thu Jul 12 19:24:07 2007: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 Thu Jul 12 19:24:07 2007: DHCPACK from 192.168.0.1 Thu Jul 12 19:24:07 2007: bound to 192.168.0.2 -- renewal in 45817 seconds.

It says (up there ^) that portmap is already running when it tries to start it a second time. It then sits there for a while before repeating the above messages. I'm not sure if it has a maximum number of retries, but I got bored and gave it a Ctrl-C. When it had finished booting, I went to text console (C-M-F1), logged in as root and tried this: # pidof portmap 1445 ...so portmap is definitely running. If at this point I do a # mount -a -t nfs ...then all of the NFS shares mount as they should, so it's not as if portmap has started and then hung. Anyway, I thought this might provide some useful diagnostics - I can run other tests if necessary.
