Re: NFS mounts but ls says "Input/output error"

Here's a strange followup on my NFS problem. I tried exporting
another directory, and it works! Here's my /etc/exports file:

# See exports(5) for a description.
# This file contains a list of all directories exported to other computers.
# It is used by rpc.nfsd and rpc.mountd.

/home/cjg 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro)
/bigspace 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0(ro)

The first entry (/home/cjg) still doesn't work; mount comes up with
no errors but a subsequent ls does. If I mount the second directory
(/bigspace), though, everything goes OK, and I've successfully played
MP3s and MPEGs across the network.

/home/cjg is on my primary drive (reiserfs), while /bigspace takes
up all of a second drive (XFS).

Weird...
