emdebian crush nfs filesystem keeps halting at boot time

[Vasilis Liaskovitis <vliaskov@gmail.com>]

HI,

I 've been using an nfs-mounted emdebian crush filesystem on a arm
at91rm9200 board. However, with my latest kernels the system halts at
boot time - I am not sure if it's checkfs.sh related.
Here's part of the bootlog:

VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem) on device 0:13.
Freeing init memory: 124K
init started: BusyBox v1.11.1 (2008-08-08 18:56:00 ART)
starting pid 317, tty '': '/etc/init.d/rcS'
.udev/ already exists on the static /dev! (warning).
Starting the hotplug events dispatcher: udevd.
Synthesizing the initial hotplug events...done.
Waiting for /dev to be fully populated...done.
Setting hostname to 'emdebian-arm'...done.
Activating swap:.
Will now check all file systems.
fsck 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)
Checking all file systems.
Done checking file systems. A log is being saved in
/var/log/fsck/checkfs if that location is writable..
Asking all remaining processes to terminate...done.
All processes ended within 1 seconds....done.
Will now mount local filesystems:.
Will now activate swapfile swap:done.
The system is going down NOW!
Sending SIGTERM to all processes
Sending SIGKILL to all processes
Requesting system halt
System halted.

Any ideas?
This is from 1 2.6.30 kernel boot. Strangely enough an old 2.6.20
kernel lets the system boot - Are there any new kernel config options
that
would cause this?

thanks,
