Hi all I'm just setting up my ROACH over here in Oz, and have reached a bit of a hurdle with the NFS filesystem which I was hoping to get some help with. When I 'run netboot' on the ROACH (in minicom over serial), I get this: DHCP client bound to address 192.168.0.2 *** Warning: no boot file name; using '0200A8C0.img' Using ppc_4xx_eth0 device TFTP from server 192.168.0.1; our IP address is 192.168.0.2 Filename '0200A8C0.img'. Load address: 0x400000 Loading: T T T T T T T T T T Retry count exceeded; starting again
Which loops. I presume the fault is summed up in the '*** Warning ...', but I have nfi what to do, being a noob and all. Any ideas? As a sidenote, I was thinking of chronicling my endeavours on setting up a ROACH working environment, would this be of use? Thanks Danny PS: Some extra info: I extracted the filesystem from the SVN (filesystem_etch_nfs_2009_07_07.tar.gz), to /srv/roach_boot/etch and I've set these up in the /etc/exports file: # 'ROACH-dev' is this PC, the NFS host /srv ROACH-dev(rw,no_root_squash) # 'roach' is the roach board, serial 020208 /srv roach(rw,no_root_squash) which appears to be working: d...@roach-dev:~/Desktop$ showmount -e Export list for ROACH-dev: /srv roach,ROACH-dev
