I updated my nfs root Karmic install and tried again - same problem persists.
Similarly, all of my Karmix systems are having troubles with NFS mounts at boot time. Since Jaunty, IIRC, they all initially indicate that they've failed to mount nfs volumes at boot time - usually with that "hit esc to get a recovery shell" message. After waiting a few moments, the mounts come up fine and boot continues. Recently, I was surprised to notice how quickly a SystemRescue CD (on the same network as these Karmic machines) mounted an NFS volume. Do the Gentoo folks know something about the portmapper that we don't?
