Description tim 2000-04-25 19:40:00 UTC
My system does not have a CDROM so I am trying to get NFS to another
machine with a CDROM. The mount always fails with permission denied.
This never happened in 3.1, 2.2.6, 2.1 and 2.0.

My system is 32MB RAM, Intel Pentium-MMX 223, Maxtor 84320D4 (4Gb) drive
 and standard floppy disk.

Fix: 

none.
How-To-Repeat: Just try to install using boot floppies and use NFS.

You fail to include the _actual_ error messages.

Also, does the NFS master grant permission to your other machine to let
it even mount the appropriate mountpoint?  [see /etc/exports]

Also, are you trying to mount it as root?

That works for me.

When submitting problems keep in mind that people are not psychic and
cannot detect what your situation is nor know all circumstances.

The originator needs to substantiate his claims for other people to even 
be remotely able to help him.
