SubjectNFS client lock (2.1.117)
Linux 2.1.117 on a no-PCI 486 w/48M ram, UP, 

I experienced a strange lock mounting remote nfs directory. I report
this because this is the first time a 2.1.11x kernel gives me any
problem.
I mount nfs via autofs a volume form an HPUX server:
marte -rw,soft,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 marte:/altro

It worked well the last few days (2.1.117), then this morning it
locked on the mount command, state D, unkillable. the server were
working, and a 2.0.34 box was mounting/umounting it happily.
Ah, it seemed that (lockd) was desappeared. Network (login, news) was
working well. It was not a autofs fail, hand-mounting locked too. And
not a server problem, I tried with a linux 2.0.34 too.
Unfortunately I had some important work to do ASAP so I rebooted
the machine. I had a lot of "try to unuse" messages on swapoff, and
the a lock on umount (logical). I could do a nice reboot thanks to
SysRq-s SysRq-u SysRq-b.
If this happens again, can you suggest some way to give you better
info?

HTH,
Romano
