Sometime post FreeBSD6 (can't remember exactly when), the default for
mounts changed from UDP to TCP. To get a UDP mount for a newer FreeBSD
system, you need to explicitly add the "udp" option on the mount.
(If your NFS server handles TCP mounts fine, I have no idea why this
doesn't work for newer systems, but I've never used a Live Filesystem
Fixit console.)
