When I recv'd this error the first time (out of two so far) I ran e2fsck

The netstd* files are used for network cards. Read the NET3-HOWTO in your

The problem most likely stems from the fact that the filesystem I am
writing to is on an NFS disk --- the exact same programs don't give
this error when copied to a local filesystem.

The S# sets the order of initialization when entering that init level.
This should have been done by dpkg. You need to insure that anything
needed by the network daemons is activated before this.
If you look at the other files in that directory you'll see they all have
