Cannot mount NFS share

[shoegoo]

I have been trying to mount an NFS share from my desktop to my 770. Here is the output I get/home/user # mount -o nolock,rsize=1024,wsize=1024 192.168.0.101:/mnt/media /home/user/MyDocs/nfs/
mount: Mounting 192.168.0.101:/mnt/media on /home/user/MyDocs/nfs failed: Input/output error
/home/user #

And my /etc/exports/mnt/media *(rw,sync,root_squash,insecure)

I am not sure if the size of the share matters (thats the only guess I have at this point, but my NFS knowledge is lacking), but the share is quite large (144 GB). Could that be the problem?

EDIT: Well, I am an idiot and left our NFSv3 support from my kernel, it works now.

Thank you for not deleting your post. Your example NFS mount command and /etc/exports are excellent. I am glad you got everything sorted out.

Could someone perhaps write a howto on this ?
