When ever my client boots i get the following error messages, "Mounting root filesystem: /opt/ltsp/i386 from 192.168.0.1 (null)mount: nfs mount failed: Bad file number NFS: mount program didn't pass remote address! mount: Mounting 192.168.0.1:/opt/ltsp/i386 on /mnt failed: Invalid argument
ERROR! Failed to mount the root directory via NFS! Possible reasons include: 1) NFS services may not be running on the server 2) Workstation IP does not map to a hostname, either in /etc/hosts or in DNS 3) Wrong address for NFS server in the DHCP config file 4) Wrong pathname for root directory in the DHCP config file Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!" now I know the nfs service is running on the server, so thats fine. /etc/hosts reads as follows: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.2 ws002 ws002 and dhcpd.conf: ddns-update-style none; default-lease-time 21600; max-lease-time 21600; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option broadcast-address 192.168.0.1; option routers 192.168.0.1; option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1; option root-path "192.168.0.1:/opt/ltsp/i386"; option option-128 code 128 = string; option option-129 code 129 = text; shared-network WORKSTATIONS { subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { } } group { use-host-decl-names on; option log-servers 192.168.0.254; host ws001 { hardware ethernet 00:E0:06:E8:00:84; } } group { use-host-decl-names on; option log-servers 192.168.0.254; host ws001 { hardware ethernet 00:E0:06:E8:00:84; fixed-address 192.168.0.1; filename "/lts/vmlinuz"; ## option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00; #This is NOT a MAC address ## option option-129 "NIC=ne IO=0x300"; } host ws002 { hardware ethernet 00:20:ed:61:9d:92; fixed-address 192.168.0.2; filename "/lts/vmlinuz"; } } I can't find anything wrong with these, but perhaps i'm looking in the worng places. Any ideas anyone? thanks in advance, Luc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
