Thanks. Yes I have. Here are a couple configuration options I have set: CONFIG_IP_PNP=y CONFIG_IP_PNP_DHCP=y CONFIG_IP_PNP_BOOTP=y CONFIG_IP_PNP_RARP=y
CONFIG_NFS_FS=y CONFIG_NFS_V3=y CONFIG_NFS_V4=y CONFIG_NFS_DIRECTIO=y CONFIG_NFSD=y CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y CONFIG_NFSD_V4=y CONFIG_NFSD_TCP=y CONFIG_ROOT_NFS=y Everything is textbook really. I followed several different examples and still nothing works. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matthias-Christian Ott Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2005 11:09 AM To: Haven Skys Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: Re: Help: kernel option root=/dev/nfs failing 2.6.10 Haven Skys wrote: >I am attempting to create network bootable system with 2.6.10 and nfs and am >having trouble. > >I am using grub and the boot goes without a hitch until the kernel attempts >to use the commands I've sent. > ><SNIP from grub.conf> >bootp >root (nd) >kernel (nd)/redhat-2.6.10/kernel root=/dev/nfs ip=bootp >nfsroot=10.0.120.1:/diskless/redhat-2.6.10/ >baseos ></SNIP> > >Network booting machine X does fine until.
