Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

On a stock edgy system without portmap or nfs-common it is possible to nfs mount a directory (also it takes some time for the kernel to timeout on portmap). This longer works on feisty, the kernel complains that it can't read the nfs superblock. So on the new feisty system the user will assume that something broke during the upgrade.

To reproduce:

Mount an NFS share without nfs-common installed, i.e.

mount 10.0.1.3:/home/phillip /mnt

Mount will respond with NFS can't read superblock.
