(Below is what I changed)
It makes no difference, fails just the same. Would an "strace" help?
I will now setup an ext2 export. exofs is an heavy ext2 copy paste in every
thing meta-data and nfs-export. I hope to strimline to the basics.
You have asked before, if the failure is reproducible. Yes it fails every
time in exactly the same way. "git status" on that tree has never succeeded
from the 2.6.34-rc2 client.
