Hi, I tried to use netboot method, and I can't get my sparc to use initrd. I tried two methods : dhcp,netboot and setenv boot-file : $ setenv boot-file "vga=normal initrd=netboot-initrd.gz ramdisk_size=8192 root=/dev/rd/0 devfs=mount,dall rw" $ boot net:dhcp this loads the di.img (tftp image build from cvs), but I got an error after I pressed three times ENTER when asking for a floopy : from memory : "... can't open rd/0, please use a correct root= option" Second time, I use a silo.conf method, with vmlinux-2.4.21-sparc64 kernel and netboot-initrd.gz ( and same append option ). i noticed that during kernel booting, devfs reported "0x1" as options ( i will re-check later ). How can I use netboot for testing d-i ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
