Mounting NFS shares

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to mount a NFS share from a linux media box, it's up an running and I can get it from my laptop so no problem there.

    The usual mount command from a terminal doesn't work and neither does the CIFS/NFS app from the market, from much google searching I think that I'm missing some modules:
    nfs.ko and others, they're not in \system\lib

    Does anyone know where I can get these?
    HTC Desire 2.2 stock rooted
    Thanks

    I started a thread on this a while ago and did a fair bit of googling. Exact same issue (media on a linux server). cifs seems to be supported, but I couldn't find anything definitive on NFS (though of course it should be!). I did find one app that seemed to be promising, but I'm still waiting on my android tablet to be delivered. I bookmarked it somewhere. I'll try and dig it out for you.

    Oh, what does the mount command say by the way? Also, can you ping the nfs server from your android device?

    edit: also, is there a mount.nfs command anywhere?

    I can ssh to the server from the phone so no problem there. (Using connectbot FWIW)

    I used mount 192.168.0.6:/export/media /mnt/sdcard/nfs (in TerminalEmulator)
    also tried with -t nfs -o ro and -t nfs4
    just get "No such device"

    The only thing in /sbin is adbd and the only thing in /system/lib/modules is bcm4329.ko

    Was trying to search the XDA site but just got some people with a Galaxy who solved the problem with self compiled modules and busy box. off to google that now, though it was far from compiling I was raired

    Good luck. Let us know how you get on. Kernel compiles aren't that difficult for what it's worth.
