Hello,
I managed to run a NFS server on a Beaglebone a couple of years ago by 
simply installing the following module.

*opkg nfs-utils install*

Revisiting the idea with the Beaglebone black I get the following message 
when installing the package
*nfs-utils: unsatisfied recommendation for kernel-module-nfsd*

Unsurprisingly the service then fails :

*root@beaglebone:~# systemctl status nfsserver.service*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Version 1.2.3 starting*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone sm-notify[821]: Version 1.2.3 starting*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone sm-notify[821]: Failed to read monitor data 
from /var/lib/nfs/sm.bak/state*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Failed to read 
/var/lib/nfs/state: Success*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Initializing NSM state*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Running as root.  chown 
/var/lib/nfs to choose different user*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: unable to register (statd, 1, 
udp).*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone nfsserver[807]: starting statd: done*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: Kernel NFS 
server support.*
*Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone systemd[1]: Unit nfsserver.service entered 
failed state*

Trying resuscitation :
*root@beaglebone:~# /etc/init.d/nfsserver start*
*creating NFS state directory: done*
*starting 8 nfsd kernel threads: rpc.nfsd: Unable to access /proc/fs/nfsd 
errno 2 (No such file or directory).*
*Please try, as root, 'mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd' and then restart 
rpc.nfsd to correct the problem*

Then kindly trying to make sense out of the error message
*root@beaglebone:~# mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd *
*mount: unknown filesystem type 'nfsd'*

It seems pretty clear that something called "nfsd" is missing, but I can't 
figure out what is needed to get it. Apparently it is not a package.

Any advice welcome.
Thanks.
