NFS 3.0 is the correct version to use on Explorer 3.0 thru 6.1.
The 6.0 source tape contains patches up to 3.9, and the 6.1
update tape, up to 3.14.  Additional patches in 6.1 are needed
to register mount-server for version 2.  I do not recall any
problem similar to the one you describe or at lease we are not
aware of.  Would you consider re-installing RPC, and NFS to see
if the problem will clear up?  Or, submit a backtrace (doing
ctrl-m from the error handler) to bug@csc.ti.com and have
someon to look at.
