I'm trying to kickstart via nfs.  At the syslinux boot prompt, I type

linux ks=nfs:slserver.privnet:/SL/51/ks/standalone

The slserver logs an authenticated mount request, so it's accepted the request and offered the share. But, the anaconda installer fails to register the offer and suggest I continue with an interactive install. On screen 3, I see the following logged:

INFO   : doing kickstart... setting it up
INFO   : url is slserver.privnet:/SL/51/ks/standalone
INFO   : file location: nfs://slserver.privnet:/SL/51/ks/standalone
ERROR  : failed to open /tmp/mnt/standalone: Permission denied
ERROR  : failed to copy file to /tmp/ks.cfg

I've done NFS installs since RedHat 6. Most times when it failed it was usually an NFS problem. And I suspect this is the case here. Perhaps some NFS4 weirdness? I'd appreciate suggestions on how to proceed.
