How, for the love of me, do you get that stupid NFS working properly?
1. I cannot install from CD-rom with bootdisk. (Cdrom doesn't support CDR'S)
2. I cannot install over the internet. (Locks up halfway through the install)
3. I cannot figure out NFS. (Starts to install then can't find the files)
Wooooo whooooo

what exactly are you installing? Are you using the rpms? apt-get? up2date? NFS is really easy to setup. Here is a quickie.
First you need to add the filesystem you want shared to /etc/exports.
Example for /etc/exports:
[root@paradox root]# cat /etc/exports
/nfs 192.168.1.0/24(rw)
Now you will need to start the portmap daemon (service portmap start) and nfs (service nfs start). To make this always start at boot issue the chkconfig command: chkconfig nfs on && chkconfig portmap on. Now with your share dir added to /etc/exports issue the exportfs command as root:
[root@paradox root]# exportfs
/nfs 192.168.1.0/24
This is now sharing out the /nfs dir on the box to any ip in the 192.168.1.0/24 range, with read and write priveleges.
