Any ideas?

No idea, to be honest. Asking the question here may be more helpful: http://forums.debian.net/

nfs-common's configuration script called "invoke-rc.d nfs-common start", which failed when rpc.statd failed to start.

You can check its status with the following:

/etc/init.d/nfs-common status

 

If "all daemons running" is returned, then you're clear to finish configuring the packages with:

dpkg --configure -a

 

Otherwise, you can attempt to start it with the following:

/etc/init.d/nfs-common start

or

/etc/init.d/nfs-common restart

 

If this returns "Starting NFS common utilities: statd failed!", having a look at the relevant logs or starting statd manually (su -l statd -c /sbin/rpc.statd) might shed some light on why statd isn't playing nicely.

Thanks.
