I've used mount's in the kickstart %post section like forever and I never needed 'nolock' until 5.x. All I did was 'mount -rvt nfs server:/remote /local'. I also did not start the nfslock service.

It has been ages since I 've done this but certainly in the past the

a nolock and nfsvers=2

mount -o nolock,nfsvers=2

I'm pretty sure that we don't need to add nfsvers any more - I know we don't use it. I'm not sure if the nolock is really needed any more but we still do that - though we also start up the nfslock stuff too as well :-)

We now do nfs mounts in %pre as well since we found that nfs access to our extra local repos (via file:// locations) is faster (and uses less memory) than either ftp: or http: forms of access from anaconda.
