I am trying to run LTSP for a 10-workstations network, but have fallen into trouble and _need help_. I read all documentation available and checked every bit of it, but I cannot troubleshoot this -- please help!
Details:
I have one machine that plays "all servers" role (IP 192.168.100.254) and one for a workstation (ws01).
The workstation boots from a floppy, then downloads the kernel and reaches the point where it tries to do "pivot_root", where I get:
Mounting root filesystem: /opt/ltsp/i386" Doing the pivot_root... nfs: server 192.168.0.254 not responding, still trying...
and here it hangs forever.
The nfs seems to work fine, also no iptable problems, the ws01 is listed in /etc/hosts, the /etc/hosts.allow seems fine (see dumps below).
The ws01 is Dell Optiplex GX, NIC 3Com 3c905 TX,
The distro is SuSE 9.0, and here any related dumps:

I can see the log of the terminal station getting twice an IP from the DHCP server and then accessing the /opt/ltsp/i386 via nfs:

and the /var/lib/nfs/xtab seems okay:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat /var/lib/nfs/xtab
/opt/ltsp/i386 ws01.midora.local(ro,sync,wdelay,hide,nocrossmnt,secure,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,subtree_check,secure_locks,acl,mapping=identity,anonuid=-2,anongid=-2)
and the portmap seems okay:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ps -e | grep portmap 1198 ? 00:00:00 portmap
CAN ANYONE HELP SOON? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
