I going nuts here. In June, I set up a scheme to have an old PC boot from a local image (floppy and/or hd) and run of a nfs-root partition on my server. Works very well with 2.2.20, and I replicated it with 2.2.21.
But for the life of me, I cannot get it to work with 2.4.19. Neither the stock kernel (from the sources .dep) nor with the open-mosix patch. I tried numerous config option, and all I get, invariably, is a kernel panic relating to init right after the local hd* devices are found. At this point 2.2.* seems to find and use the eth0 device and the remote partitions. Any suggestions welcome. Please CC me as I'm not subscribed on -user or -beowulf.
