shane, I'm using the default kernel and initrd srcipt (the ones that comes with ltsp packages) I have only changed its name. ( mv /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-ltsp???? /tftpboot/vmlinuz But initrd (linuxrc) isn't in /tftpboot dir. Is it suposed to be there? I found /mnt/initrd dir. And the linuxrc script in it. I also found lines in /tftpboot/vmlinuz (vi /tftpboot/vmlinuz) witch tells kernel to mount /dev/ram0 as rootdir and /linuxrc as innitial script (rootdir=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc)
And about the NIC's, the answer is: No. I have 3. :-) Alex Robertson Shane Kennedy wrote: > > It looks like the nbi kernel isn't making any mount requests. > What lernel, and initrd do you have in the tftpboot dir ?. > Do you have 2 NIC's in the server ?.
