Hi all, i'm trying to make a diskless client following this https://man.openbsd.org/diskless
(also find this http://kuutorvaja.eenet.ee/wiki/Diskless_OpenBSD and read the tutorial on Absolute OpenBSD ) Both server and client are virtualbox guest. server is amd64 on 6.1. The boot process stop here: (other info here ...) PXE boot MAC address 0b:00:27:42:7a:f0, interface em0 nfs_boot: using interface em0, with revarp & bootparams nfs_boot: client_addr=192.168.20.21 nfs_boot: server_addr=192.168.20.1 hostname=thin1 root on 192.168.20.1:/export/diskless/root swap on 192.168.20.1:/export/diskless/swap exec /sbin/init: error 8 init: not found panic: no init (other info here ...) As a test, i tried to mount nfs directory from a debian system and it's working fine. There are known problems with this procedure or I'm missing something ? Regards Here there are the configurations I'm using # cat /etc/dhcpd.conf shared-network virtualnet { subnet 192.168.20.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.20.10 192.168.20.20; option routers 192.168.20.1; option broadcast-address 192.168.20.255; } host thin1 { hardware ethernet 08:00:27:42:7A:F0; fixed-address 192.168.20.21; next-server 192.168.20.1; filename "pxeboot"; } } # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost 192.168.20.1 mtbsd 192.168.20.21 thin1 192.168.20.10 debian1 # cat /etc/ethers 08:00:27:42:7A:F0 thin1 # cat /etc/bootparams thin1 root=192.168.20.1:/export/diskless/root swap=192.168.20.1: /export/diskless/swap # cat /etc/exports /export/diskless -maproot=root -alldirs thin1 /export/diskless -maproot=root -alldirs debian1 /usr -ro thin1 # ls -all /export/diskless/ total 108 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Aug 14 17:10 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Aug 14 16:22 .. drwxr-xr-x 14 root wheel 512 Aug 14 17:18 root -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 125829120 Aug 14 17:10 swap # ls -all /export/diskless/root/sbin/init -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 397704 Apr 2 08:55 /export/diskless/root/sbin/init -- Matteo Filippetto
