I need help!

Yesterday I booted my Linux system for the first time in days, because I
had 0.99-p2 installed. What happened was that I can no loger mount any NFS
directories. Well, I booted again from the old system, but it won't work!
I guess I've now tried almost all combinations of what I might have changed
(like trying all verions of libc.so.4.xx, several versions of mount, mostly
from the SLS-releases and the newest FSF-stuff from tsx-11, with both
0.99-p0 and 0.99-p2). It just won't mount my most precious NFS directory
any more. No, it not already mounted, and no, the mount point is not
busy (made a new one to check), and yes, I use 'mount -t nfs' to be
sure about the fs type. The error message I get (besides the busy stuff)
.. nfs_read_super: missing something (I just went about to check, but it's
gone (only the nfs_read_super stuff) when X is running. Funny).
If I don't use the '-t nfs' option I get an unknown error 26240.

WHAT IS GOING ON?? Any clues to what I might have broke fooling around
with this nice Linux system are appreciated. Save my soul (and my time, and
my nerves).   Thanks lot!

Hendrik.
