I'm having this problem trying to get a diskless client working with
the root filesystem mounted over NFS. Here is the (end) of the output
from the kernel when booting:
IP-Config: Got DHCP answer from 192.168.9.254, my address is
192.168.9.196
IP-Config: Complete:
device=eth0, addr=192.168.9.196, mask=255.255.255.0,

bootserver=192.168.9.254, rootserver=192.168.9.254,
rootpath=/usr/local/diskless/base
NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.
Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 192.168.9.254
Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 192.168.9.254
VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem).
Mounted devfs on /dev
Freeing unused kernel memory: 304k freed
At this point it hangs and doesn't do anything. There are no
additional error messages, and the messages on the server indicate
that it has mounted the NFS file system (the following message
appears):
Jul 29 10:39:35 [rpc.mountd] authenticated mount request from
192.168.9.196:800 for /usr/local/diskless/base
(/usr/local/diskless/base)
Has anyone ever seen this problem or can anyone point out something
that I might not be doing correctly.
Thanks,
Nick
