Not sure which version of NFS I'm using, most likely 2, but could be 3.
But I have a peculiar situation and it only started cropping up recently.
(After 20 days of continuous service)

I mailed the list a bit ago about a linux client crashing when accessing
anything one directory below the root of an acd mount. I fixed this by
not having any folders on my burned cds (mp3s, so no need for em)

But now when i try to access it, right after boot..I'll get:

  05:02pm kid@eye:/usr/home/kid > ls /cdrom1
  ls: /cdrom1: Input/output error

a ``umount /cdrom1; mount /cdrom1'' will go through again, but the above
condition repeats itself after a few accesses. The directory (on the
linux side) also seems to disappear sometimes.

This is a 3.1-stable cvsup'd about 20-30 days ago. The hardware is fairly
new, except the CD-ROM drive which a cheap toshiba OEM about 3 years old.
The Linux box is 2.2.6, SuSE-6.0 with some mucky hacks by me.

Also of note is the trickery to get it to mount a cd: 

  06:16pm root@booger /etc $ mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0a /cdrom
  mount_cd9660: Invalid argument
  06:16pm root@booger /etc $ mount_cd9660 -s 0 /dev/acd0a /cdrom

Anything insightful is appreciated.
