I have a file server running 1.5.1_BETA2, upgraded from source cvs
updated yesterday.  The previous kernel was from April 24th, and seems
to have had the same problems.  Two Linux machines that nfs mount a
filesystem from this server see 30 second plus timeouts before the
mount succeeds.  Another Linux machine is diskless, the mount of the
root file system started failing Sunday (before the update to latest
source, and the reason for it), and the machine panics when it isn't
able to mount the root file system.  The Linux boxes are all showing
error -5.

I'm also seeing problems with NetBSD machines (current-1.5U & 1.5.1_BETA2)
mounting NFS from the file server.  Mostly I'm just seeing alternating
"fileserver not responding" "fileserver is alive" on the NetBSD machines.

The network in question is mostly 100Mb switched, the diskless Linux box
is 10Mb, one each of the NetBSD & Linux machines are on 802.11b.
