I installed 386bsd 0.1 on a 486-33 with IDE drive, we8013-clone ethernet with no problems. Everything including the network seems to work (at least, ftp, telnet, rsh work fine and quickly in both directions). However, when I try to boot with the nfs-related stuff enabled (portmap, mountd etc.) mountd hangs without being able to register with portmap. If I press ^C on the console during boot, things proceed more or less regul;arly and the system comes up (the only thing is, mountd takes most of CPU time). Other things (nfsd, nfsiod) apparently register correctly (as shown by using rpcinfo from another machine). Now, I cannot either NFS-mount the 386 disk from another machine (clearly because mountd does not work, the error message is nfs_mount: bsd386a:/ server not responding: rpc program not registered or mount other disks on the 386bsd machine. (this time the error message is Bad MNT RPC: RPC: Authentication error; why = Invalid client credential I haven't installed the crypt routines or any of the patches yet, because from the descriptions I have it's not clear which ones apply to my problem. Any help from the net ?
