RHEL6 nfs repo not working

I used nfs://<hostname>:<path> because
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#repo says so.  I just
tried nfs:<hostname>:<path>, got exactly same result: repodata of the nfs
repos can be successfully read during installation, but anaconda fails to
read any package from the nfs repos.

Thanks
