Hi everyone, I am attempting to run embedded linux on an RPX-Lite board. I have tried from the Hard Hat CDK and also building from 2.4.2 source. With both, I have the same problem - I can't mount the NFS.
The output from minicom says this: mount: server 10.1.253.88 not responding, timed out Root-NFS: Server returned error -5 while mounting /tftpboot/10.1.100.111 In /var/log/messages I find this: (...) mountd[12:10]:authenticated mount request from 10.1.100.111:800 for /tftpboot/10.1.100.111 (/tftpboot) I expect this on the kernel I built from source, but I was expecting the Hard Hat kernel to be mounting /opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/8xx/target. I assumed the "option root-path" line in dhcpd.conf configured this. I have copied this filesystem to 10.1.100.111 though. I am able to mount /tftpboot from a remote Linux system, so I think the server is configured correctly. Here is my /etc/exports file: /tftpboot (rw,no_root_squash) /opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/8xx/target (rw,no_root_sqush,no_all_squash) When I all a no_all_squash option to /tftpboot, I don't get the "authenticated mount request" message in /var/log/messages. One other thing is that my host computer is not on a static IP (it's on DHCP). If this would cause the problem I can probably get a static IP, but the sysadmins don't give them out too easily (I have one for the board). Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be the problem? I will be happy to post any other information that could help the gurus in here to identify my problem.
