From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17-14 i686) when kickstarting and mounting another directory via nfs during the %post we get the following error output (see vc4): <5>portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out <5>portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out <4>lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-5 <5>portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out <4>lockd_down: no lockd running. Although these messages on VC4, the directory was mounted, but there is a really long timeout delaying the kickstart process. You can replicate the mount step on VC2 (but without the lockd warnings) before you reboot. Guinness and Zoot did the job without any probs, I did not try Fisher... Take care Andreas Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kickstart until installation is completem, but don't reboot 2. mount from an nfs server a directory (server is rh 6.2) 3. or try mounting a directory during the post section
problem goes (no timeout) when mounting with -o nolock
due to differences between 2.2 and 2.4 kernels, the -nolock is now required to successfully mount an exported share on a 2.4 system without the portmapper running ... this is documented in the release notes ... :) HTH, Brock
