I guess I'll keep following up my own posts until someone else chimes in :-). Seriously, though, had anybody else seen this problem? Has anyone successfully mounted an NFS volume from kickstart wiht CentOS 5?
Yes, both in centos 4 and 5.
I do it like this:
mount 172.20.0.1:/home /mnt/temp -o nolock,udp
nolock because the lock deamon isn't running.
Thank you, thank you, thank you (or should I say tak, tak, tak)! The nolock option did the trick. It wasn't required in CentOS 4, but sure is in CentOS 5. I wonder what defaults have changed (I didn't find anything in the man pages for mount and nfs). In both cases I am accessing the same NFS server, which is a CentOS 4.4 system (soon to be a CentOS 5 system also).
