Any help would be appreciated. > Just did that to two of my systems. Almost all -current utils work fine with a 2.1 kernel. mount_nfs was one that didn't. When I discovered that I built nfsiod and nfsd and booted the 2.1 kernel again. ps, pstat and top are some others that won't work. Once I had NFS going I just did a make world. diff -r /etc /usr/src/etc is one way. -current and 2.1 are pretty close /etc wise.
