I am trying to install nfs server to my router TP-Link C7 v5 running on this sysupgrade bin
per this User Guide
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/nas/nfs_configuration
and not meeting with success.
First of all, I believe there is a typo in this line of the User Guide:
opkg update opkg install nfs-kernel-serverSystem
which (probably) should have read:
opkg update opkg install nfs-kernel-server
The amended line however gave shell output that ended in "exportfs: /mnt does not support NFS export."
Shell output:
root@OpenWrt:~# opkg install nfs-kernel-server

Assuming default behaviour ('no_subtree_check').
NOTE: this default has changed since nfs-utils version 1.0.x

I tried amending the reference to the share location in /etc/exports so it is no longer /mnt but /mnt/dump2.
Shell output:
root@OpenWrt:/mnt# mkdir dump2
root@OpenWrt:/mnt# vi /etc/exports
root@OpenWrt:/mnt# service nfsd reload

What could have gone wrong? What should I try next?
If anything might interfere with nfs, ksmbd server is running on this rounter. OtherwiseI have installed a whole bunch of packages but did not do much configuration.
Why nfs (esp. when I have ksmbd)? I am just seeing how different things work.
