Hello, I managed to run a NFS server on a Beaglebone a couple of years ago by simply installing the following module.
*opkg nfs-utils install* Revisiting the idea with the Beaglebone black I get the following message when installing the package *nfs-utils: unsatisfied recommendation for kernel-module-nfsd* Unsurprisingly the service then fails : *root@beaglebone:~# systemctl status nfsserver.service* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Version 1.2.3 starting* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone sm-notify[821]: Version 1.2.3 starting* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone sm-notify[821]: Failed to read monitor data from /var/lib/nfs/sm.bak/state* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Failed to read /var/lib/nfs/state: Success* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Initializing NSM state* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: Running as root. chown /var/lib/nfs to choose different user* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone rpc.statd[820]: unable to register (statd, 1, udp).* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone nfsserver[807]: starting statd: done* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone systemd[1]: Failed to start LSB: Kernel NFS server support.* *Jan 01 02:18:08 beaglebone systemd[1]: Unit nfsserver.service entered failed state* Trying resuscitation : *root@beaglebone:~# /etc/init.d/nfsserver start* *creating NFS state directory: done* *starting 8 nfsd kernel threads: rpc.nfsd: Unable to access /proc/fs/nfsd errno 2 (No such file or directory).* *Please try, as root, 'mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd' and then restart rpc.nfsd to correct the problem* Then kindly trying to make sense out of the error message *root@beaglebone:~# mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfsd * *mount: unknown filesystem type 'nfsd'* It seems pretty clear that something called "nfsd" is missing, but I can't figure out what is needed to get it. Apparently it is not a package. Any advice welcome.
