Hi Kim,

I am having similar problems trying to netboot a Sun Sparcstation from
another Sun.
The bootfile gets tftp, the kernel gets loaded (by NFS by the way, not by
tftp) but re-mounting the exported / on the machine fails. The console
shows "NFS: RPC portmapper failure: NFS: unable to send".
So the funny thing is that the kernel can mount /, but mount_nfs called
by /etc/rc cannot.
Does anyone know why? This only started when upgrading the diskless client
to 1.3.3.
