Hi Jim , thanks for the details.

I have changed my /etc/exports to match yours , I had sync and no insecure. 
Otherwise the same.

However, my 7250 reports substantially different mount options. 

/dev/root on / type nfs 
(rw,vers=2,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,namlen=255,hard,nointr,nolock,\proto=udp,timeo=11,retrans=3,sec=sys,addr=192.168.1.3)


vers=2 ?? 

Where are these settings determined?

thanks.
