 I'm seeing NFS hangs after a system install (see my previous
reports in the freebsd-hackers list.)  I'm beginning to suspect
we simply have an NFS bug here and that your problems aren't
particular to "install time."


 I was, however, able to load a custom setup which was basically
binary + des + Xfree86 over NFS - I didn't try the full source or
kernel developer distribution.
