Bug#671874: linux-2.6: build nfs-modules udeb for amd64
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 3.2.15-1
Severity: wishlist
Busybox in Debian has recently been updated with NFS mount support, but in
order to mount remote NFS file systems during d-i nfs modules are needed.
It seems nfs-modules are already build for some other architecture but not
amd64. Here is a patch to build them for amd64 - its probably not perfect
but it did it for me. I have verified that d-i now will allow NFS mount as
long as you pass "-o nolock" to mount.
My next step will be to get partman to support NFS root...
