No worries - there's nothing worse than seeing your exact problem on a list, but no solution. > Do you think you could summarise the hints you gathered into a short > paragraph that we can put in README.Debian to help anyone else who has > similar problems? Hm, let's see... 'Make sure NFS lockd is running on the client, or mount the NFS export which contains /usr with the 'nolock' option. If /usr gets mounted from an initrd, check 'ps' output once the system is fully booted to ensure that you see a [lockd] kernel process, or an 'rpc.lockd' userspace process. If not, just issue your mount command again (no need to even -o remount it seems!) and run /etc/init.d/nfs-common restart. Cheers, Gavin.
