The client system isn't running a portmapper that its NFS client (specifically lockd) can talk to. That "connection refused" is due to an incorrect client configuration. A simple workaround might be to specify the "nolock" mount option for this test.

According to the trace, the mount succeeds, and NFS requests are working. However, the server's replies to READ requests are not being seen by the client. Something on the client host or in the network is dropping them. I see successful 16KB reads, but 32KB reads do not work. Check your client for packet filtering (either intentional filtering, or accidental filtering due to configuration issues).

I'll revisit the mount option defaults for NFSROOT again.
