hard links in /usr/lib/fai/sbin

Hi,
the postinst script makes some hard links:
ln /usr/lib/fai/sbin/* /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot/sbin
I do export /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot but not /usr/lib/fai.
So there is a hard link between trust boundaries. I am not fully
aware of the consequences but I can observe that this does
not work for me. When I try to
cat /sbin/rcS_fai
on the fai client then I get: Input/Output error
when I do a copy:
cp /usr/lib/fai/sbin/* /usr/lib/fai/nfsroot/sbin
then I can access /sbin/rcS_fai on the client.
I guess that the user space nfsd behaves in a different way.
Kind regards, Thomas
