FC6 kickstart chroot mount problem

Hi
I have a problem with FC6 kickstart:
In the %post section nfs mounts don't work.

I changed the kickstart config so it doesn't reboot and went in via the console straight after the install before it rebooted.

I found this:

sh-3.1# chroot /mnt/sysimage /bin/bash
bash-3.1# mkdir -p /admin/mnt
bash-3.1# mount -t nfs 10.0.1.64:/export/install /admin/mnt
mount.nfs: Input/output error

I've used the same method for Fedora core 5, Red Hat etc and never had any problems.
Mounting the same server outside of the chrooted environment works, and I might have to use this for a workaround.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers
Dax
