The values should be "rpc.mountd", "rpc.nfsd" and "rpc.statd". 10673 1 qing.he 2010-10-19 18:30:51 +0000 Changing these to rpc.mountd, rpc.nfsd, rpc.statd can eliminate initscript errors. However, nfs still doesn't work # exportfs -av exporting *:/ # mount localhost:/ /mnt (won't return here) 10674 2 mark.hatle 2010-10-19 18:33:54 +0000 You need to make sure that NFSD is enable in the kernel. Assuming it is, you also need to make sure you have an ethernet device enabled (loopback apparently isn't enough). I have been successfully using NFS from my target board once I did those things. 10698 3 richard.purdie 2010-10-20 02:31:02 +0000 Initscript issue fixed in master in http://git.pokylinux.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=5ee6384d9990a7da25a352c308e698d3f3990d6d
