After the mountall bug #537133 was fixed, the method that was described previously in the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPWithoutNFS wiki page again works for me. Does anyone still experience this? Marking as incomplete...
The patch cannot be accepted in the LTSP code as it breaks nbd booting. Instead, maybe /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/ltsp can be modified so that it automatically detects the BOOT variable: MODULES="netboot" BOOT="ltsp_nbd" for p in $(cat /proc/cmdline 2>/dev/null); do case $p in boot=*) unset BOOT break ;; esac done COMPCACHE_SIZE="25%" When unset, init will set BOOT=nfs if root=/dev/nfs is passed in the kernel command line. So this way that file doesn't need to be modified when one wants to boot an LTSP client with NFS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/485709 Title: /etc/init/mountall.conf fails when root is mounted using NFS instead of NBD -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
