OK, the saga continues. We are getting close here, I am sure. I am getting a TFTP boot and a NFS root file system.
One serious issue J I cannot log in! Both debian and root users fail. The rfs is debain Jessie and I've cleared any root password stuff from /etc/shadow jevans@nfshost# cat bone/rootfs/etc/shadow root::16595:0:99999:7::: debian::16595:0:99999:7::: Any ideas? FWIW Mounting the file system from the flasher image worked immediately once nfs-common was installed. uname -a Linux beaglebone 3.8.13-bone70 #1 SMP Fri Jan 23 02:15:42 UTC 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux # attempt to mount the exported NFS rfs to check it works root@beaglebone:~# ls -als /mnt/nfs total 8 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 1 21:28 . 4 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Mar 1 21:28 .. # check what is exported from the main workstation root@beaglebone:~# showmount -e debi7 Export list for debi7: /home/jevans/bone/rootfs * # now mount the drive root@beaglebone:~# mount -t nfs debi7:/home/jevans/bone/rootfs /mnt/nfs # and get a listing.
