Hi, I just noticed that in a diskless-system initramfs, mount.nfs4 appears to hang whenever it cannot get a response (any response) from the rpcbind port. If there is no rpcbind running and thus, TCP RST is sent, fine. But if it's dropped, like when the "lo" device is not in the "up" state (as can easily happen at this stage of boot), mount.nfs4 waits forever. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
