Is NFS working with the new boot floppies?

["Marcelo E. Magallon" <mmagallo@efis.ucr.ac.cr>]

Hi,

	I just managed to get hamm installed from scratch. I'm
trying to use NFS to install the base system, but it doesn't
work. I left the thing all by itself for 30 minutes, and it's
doing nothing. I manually mounted the file system, and copied
base2_0.tgz to the local hardisk, indicated "mounted" as the
installation media, and it asked where the file was, and it
worked. Clues? (The NFS server is user space, kernel 2.0.32,
hamm, last upgraded arround March 10th... there shouldn't be a
problem with that)

Also, would it be much asking to sort the Time Zones? I was a
bit weird having to look "Costa Rica" among all the entries. With
the previous floopies I didn't even care to read the screen
because I knew I could type America/Costa_Rica and it would work.
With this one, I have to (yikes!) "point-n-click" (hate it!)

Another thing. The letters don't work. "G Mount a previously
initialized fs". I hit "G". It does nothing. What are they there
for then?
