I've installed grml to harddisk. I ran 'aptitude upgrade' and the recent nfs-kernel-server upgrade hung while trying to start nfsd. Running

/etc/init.d/portmap start

and restarting the upgrade fixed the problem.

I don't remember turning off portmap in /etc/runlevel.conf, but maybe I or bastille-firewall did.

AFAICS you hit the following Debian bug:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=359633 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=359795

Just wait for updated packages.
