Hmm.. if you have any additional information such as the panic and
(hopefully) a kernel core stack backtrace or something like that.
If it is a repeatable problem, include info on how to repeat it...
many of us have CDROM's and can setup an NFS test :-)

:OBTW, while somebody's looking into NFS and mount, I still (with a
:kernel from mid-November) get panics when mounting a CD-ROM with
:mountd running. I can try to get a kernel dump with a newer kernel if
:anybody's interested.
:
:Speaking of kernel dumps, what happens to physical memory pages when
:they're not in use? Are they zeroed? If not, is it possible to add a
:kernel option that zeroes out unused pages, or fills them with a fixed
:pattern (e.g. f001f001 og deadbeef)? That would make kernel dumps more
:compressible...
