slackware install from nfs

[Marvin Bellamy]

Anyone ever do an install with packages on an NFS server?  I set up an 
NFS server with ProNFS on a windows box.  When I view my exports, 
everything looks fine.  My packages directory is exported as 
/d/slackware.  However, the installer gives me a message indicating it 
can't find the package directories on the NFS server.  It is however 
successfully communicating with the server.

I've gotten tired of configuration issues with the "easy-to-use" 
distros, so I'm going back to the basics.  At least with Slackware I 
know I can get everything (sound, AVIs, etc) to work.
