Mounting nfs

To avoid messing around on the internal flash partition, it's a good idea to work on a network drive when playing around. NFS is the de-facto protocol for this.

I experienced some problems with the default NFS options (timeouts, lockups, etc), and some experimentation shows this works quite ok:

 mkdir /tmp/root
 mount -t nfs <server ip>:/tmp/revica/root /tmp/root -o rsize=1024,wsize=1024,soft,nolock

Your mileage might vary.
