Description Fabian Vogt 2013-06-06 13:15:00 UTC 
- Set up nfs on a 12.3 server, exported with fsid=0.
- Installed 12.3 on another pc, rsync'd / to the nfs export
- Ran mkinitrd -f nfs -D eth0
- Configure grub (root=10.2.0.1:/)
- Reboot
- Be frustrated, as it prints "mount(2): Protocol not supported", similiar to the bug which occured in 11.4, but the workaround doesn't work, as /etc/protocols and /etc/netconfig already exist.

With a 12.2 client it works flawlessly.
Comment 1 Fabian Vogt 2013-06-07 08:03:47 UTC 
Ok, found a solution:
mkinitrd -f nfs -D eth0 -m nfsv3
NFSv3 has to be included manually, as nfsv4 alone doesn't work ("Interrupted system call").
I think it's an issue with mkinitrd, nfsv3 should be added to the nfs feature.

This is a dup of bug #815738
