The PR was about two machines mounting each others disks. If both panic or
are rebooted at the same time, they both lock up waiting for each other
coming up.
I have moved mountd startup in /etc/rc like this:
# $rwhod is imported from /etc/sysconfig;
# if $rwhod is set to YES, rwhod is run.
if [ "X${rwhod}" = X"YES" ]; then
echo -n ' rwhod'; rwhod
fi
if [ "X${nfs_server}" = X"YES" -a -r /etc/exports ]; then
echo -n ' mountd'
if [ "X${pcnfsd}" = X"YES" ]; then
mountd -n
else
mountd
fi
echo -n ' nfsd'; nfsd -u -t 4
fi
if [ "X${nfs_client}" = X"YES" ]; then
echo -n ' nfsiod'; nfsiod -n 4
fi
mount -a -t nfs >/dev/null 2>&1
if [ "X${amdflags}" != X"NO" ]; then
echo -n ' amd'; amd ${amdflags}
fi
