>Description:
NFS mounts from a solaris server onto a FreeBSD client will often hang
with the mount_nfs process stuck in uninteruptible wait (`D' in ps(1)
output).  The first time that a filesystem is mounted (eg. from
/etc/fstab), the mount will usually succeed.  Unmounting and then
attempting to mount the same filesystem again results in the hang --- 
amd(8) will trigger this behaviour quite reliably.  Forcing nfs v2
makes no difference.  Occasionally an attempted mount will cause the
whole machine to freeze: in any case the only way I've found to get
rid on the hung mount_nfs process is to reboot.

Mounting from other unix (FreBSD, Linux) servers doesn't result in hangs.  
>How-To-Repeat:

mount -t nfs -o rw solaris-server:/filesystem /mnt
umount /mnt
mount -t nfs -o rw solaris-server:/filesystem /mnt
>Fix:
Not known
