I chose 'secure port' to allow privileged port access and NFS partition mounting was successful. However, while extracting 'bin' series, FreeBSD box hangs without any response. Any ideas ? By the way, 2.1-RELEASE installation over NFS had been working fine with the same NFS server. Is it then O.K. to use 2.1 boot floppy without any loss of new features of 2.2-960501-SNAP ?
