I tried to upgrade to lenny using an ethernet connection. The
process stopped when the monitor displayed "trying to update portmap 5-26"
After a few minutes, I pressed control-C and the upgrade seemed to
continue. The resulting system seems to work, but when I try to use
aptitude to get new software, it again freezes with a complaint about
portmap. Perhaps related, it says I need to install "nfs-common".
I read that portmap has something to do with RCS servers. I don't
know what that is!
Thanks for patience with questions from an unelightened user.
