Comment 6 for bug 50558

This bug has also been reported in bug 48366.

Portmap is definitely needed for nfs mounts - unless one considers 1m30s waits ok. It has nothing to do with the liveCD as such. The wait occurs also in Thunderbird when accessing nfs-mounted mail directories. Unless there is a good reason for not installing portmap I suggest to include it as default, or at least make the nfs client depend on it.

(The nfs mount program might also try and detect a missing portmap and issue a warning - would have saved me some hours of hunting for the error).

Affects also Edgy Eft Release candidate 20061019.
