On my netbooted VS3100/38 I've got my root filesystem NFS mounted. When I
try to mount additional filesystems under say /mnt, the mount command
completes without error but the newly mounted filesystem is inaccessible.

Both the root and the additional NFS exports reside on a Linux based NFS
server. Both exports have been given rw access to root on the VS3100
machine. Also, when in the "/" directory, if I run a long listing ls,
then mnt doesn't show up. If I run a normal ls then the directory name
does show up.
The question is... Is this undesirable NFS behavior a bug or feature? :-)
