Our IBM SE managed to suggest setting the number to zero over the phone
then had to leave.  One of our local people suggested loggining in
as soon as a login was available (as root) then doing

exec mv /etc/rc.nfs /etc/rc.nfs.no

i.e., moving out the offending file that sets the number of biod to
zero then reboot and you are in to alter the file and set # biod to
something nonzero.

By the way, each system should come with a big warning message:

NEVER EVER mv libc.a.  You usually have to reload the system.
