I am trying to mount the exported dir "/" on linux. I get "Input/Output
errors", when accessing that dir.
[root@pc-lucky src]# mount -t nfs -s dist.engr:/ /mnt
[root@pc-lucky src]# ls -R /mnt
ls: /mnt/unix: Input/output error
ls: /mnt/usr2: Input/output error
...
[root@pc-lucky src]# umount /mnt
[root@pc-lucky src]# mount -t nfs -s dist.engr:/test /mnt
[root@pc-lucky src]# ls -R /mnt
<It lists the files/dirs>
...
I only get these errors when mounting and accessing the / exported
directory ONLY. I looked at dist:/ dir and there was nothing "messy" in
it. Just a bunch of ln's, .*, dirs and other files.
Maybe NFS (w/ autofs support) in linux doesn't like having / exported and
then at the same time also having the server export some other dirs (i.e:
/people)?
This works fine under IRIX. Any hints?
PS: I have used rsize, wsize of 8192 and a bunch of other variables but
still no help.
Details follow:
