In all cases, you need to either:
1. Provide the option "nolock" to turn of NFS file locking (which means
that things like elm can't lock mailboxes and will get upset if the
mailboxes are on a NFS partition).
2. before running the mount command:
a) make sure the loopback interface is up and running
b) ensure that the portmapper (called portmap or rpc.portmap) is
running.
