Nope. This was a simple test installation with everything on one partition. Did not quite understand what kind of NFS test you wanted, but did not see any difference with an NFS entry in /etc/fstab. >>Using it made kdm fail to start X with a >> working keyboard, but I suspect that is another problem. > > I don't see how readahead could cause that problem.

The problem with keeping the files in /var/ is that it would make the package unfit for release, as separate partitions for / and /var is a supported configuration in Debian. Should it just disable itself in the early boot if /var/ is on a separate partition?
