Hi, Nimish, We followed these instructions and had good results:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg03351.html The files specified might be somewhat out of date now, but the general ideas are the same. I've updated the ROACH2's /etc directory. You can get my latest ROACH2 netboot /etc directory from: git clone http://astro.berkeley.edu/~davidm/roach2_netboot_etc.git FWIW, I've found it useful to use git to track changes to the /etc directories of machines that I manage. Just be careful about pushing sensitive files (e.g. the "shadow" file) or just don't track them to begin with. Hope this helps, Dave On Apr 8, 2013, at 10:05 AM, Nimish Sane wrote: > Hello all, > > We have been using our ROACH2 boards so far with soloboot.
