I have a unique problem with my workstation (ws003, PI 166Mhz with 24MB RAM). The booting in the ws003 goes fine but get stuck and does not proceed after the follwoing lines: ================================= Running /linuxrc Mounting /proc linuxrc: Installing 8139too driver modprobe 8139too /sbin/insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/lib/crc32.o Using /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/lib/crc32.o Symbol version prefix '' /sbin/insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/drivers/net/mii.o Using /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/drivers/net/mii.o /sbin/insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o Using /lib/modules/2.4.26-ltsp-2/kernel/drivers/net/8139too.o 8139too Fast Ethernet driver 0.9.26 ======================================
I did the following to correct the problems: 1) I tried to locate a solution on the net and found several people posting the same at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=1953785 , http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=195659 and http://www.mail-archive.com/ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net/msg08048.html but none of them has any solutions 2) Added USE_NFS_SWAP=Y and SWAPFILE_SIZE =64M in lts.conf, didn't work (suggested by sudev) 3) Added (as per suggestion of Jim) option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00; # NOT a mac address option option-129 "NIC=ne IO=0x300"; but it simply failed saying that wrong NIC specifications. So, the lines are deleted again. 4) Changed the etherboot image from rom-o-matic from rtl8139 to rtl8139b, but the error remained as earlier. However, Jim is of opinion that it should simply work. Jim is kind enough to verify dhcpd.conf for the same. Help solicited.
