Sorry, no sanity, just a confirmation that I've seen the same thing  
when mounting an nfs volume.
Empty by ls, nothing matches when expanding '*', but everything is  
there if you know what the files/directories are called.
Oddly, if I chroot to the Debian flash drive, it's ls does work on  
the same directories.  Its like the busybox's ls doesn't work.
Haven't figured out why, but learned to live with it instead.
