Bug#638448: nfs-common: add support for pNFS

[Christoph Anton Mitterer <calestyo@scientia.net>]

Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.2.4-1
Severity: wishlist


Hi.

With #627655 being solved in the next uploads, thus adding pNFS/NFS41 to the default kernels
it's worth to add the last missing piece for this to really work, and I guess nfs-common
is the right package.

As I describe here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=627655#69
we'd need a modprobe config snipped which looks about like this:

alias nfs-layouttype4-1 nfs_layout_nfsv41_files
alias nfs-layouttype4-2 nfs_layout_osd2_objects
alias nfs-layouttype4-3 off

Not sure about the best name, perhaps
/etc/modprobe.d/nfs4.1.conf
?

Cheers,
Chris.
