Hi

I had the same problem.

Set environment varables in the console like is indicated in step 4.3.5 from 
getting started guide.

Be careful with Nfshost and rootpath

Regards

Hi,  
  
Can you post the output of 'printenv' on your DM355? 
  
Also the console output would be useful as would an ethereal packet capture of 
the DHCP transaction. 
  
If the nfsroot value is valid then it is likely that the problem is with in the 
DHCP area. This failure could be a mis-configuration of the DHCP server, the 
packet capture would help diagnose this. You could try bypassing DHCP by 
setting the ip= value to set static addresses for ip address, gateway etc. 
  
ip=<client-ip>:<server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<hostname>:<device>:<autoconf> 
 
Example:
ip=172.18.1.222:172.18.1.49:172.18.0.254:255.255.0.0:::off

Obviously you will need to change the network values to suit your network & how 
you come up with an address to use is your problem ;-)

Subject: nfs boot problem

Hi,

 

My DM355 EVM board was unable to boot through nfs mount.

It was struck in getting dhcp ip.

"DHCP/BOOTP reply not for us" message is coming repeatedly..

sometimes its also giving error like 

VFS : cannot open root device "nfs"

Please append a correct "root=" boot option.

kerne panic.

 

Any one has got any idea with the error or am i doing any mistake?

 

thanks
