Either do what mount suggests:

mount -t nfs -o nolock 192.168.1.2:/pub /nfs

(it's "nolock", not "nolocks"), or start portmap+statd prior
to mounting:

/etc/init.d/portmap start
/etc/init.d/nfs-common start

KNOPPIX philosophy is to run as few (unneeded) services as possible,
therefore neither portmap nor statd are started by default.
