There are no CDs involved, despite what the message says.
All CDs were copied to /home/Suse9/installroot/..... and remounted to /installroot with the mount --bind command

Are all the CD available at the same time on yout laptop???? Do not use one CD each time... download all the CD on your HD and then try to configure the NFS server. Max

Where most of my time, I've tried installing Suse 9.0 with SMB (to no avail), I'm trying a NFS install this weekend (with NFS on my Suse 9.0 laptop).
I got the following
1 nfs 192.168.99.210 installroot
warning: can't open /etc/fstab: No such file or
directory
lockd: failed to open /var/lib/nfs/state: err=-2 CD not mounted. Please check parameters. Please specify the installation Source:
When I exit the install, do a "mkdir temp" and issue: "mount -t nfs 192.168.99.210:/installroot temp", that seems to work. Well, I can do a LS on temp and see the files back on my laptop.
My guess, is the NFS server hasn't setup or authorized directories properly.
I created the /installroot directory on the root drive with suse9 and core9 next....etc.
Per the RELEASE NOTES, during the install, I just need to specify the directory "installroot". Since this seems to be relative directory, I'm not sure NFS would know where the subdirectory resides.
The /etc/exports on the NFS server has:
/installroot/ *(ro,root_squash,sync)
That would seem to jive with what I see when I try a manual mount, but I'm not sure that this is what the Suse 9.0 install needs.
The Suse 9.0 installation really doesn't talk much about the NFS server, just part of the directory structure that it needs.
Now, it may be that my root directory /installroot may have to be a real structure. The actual install files are on /home/Suse9/installroot/sles9.... and accessed as:
mount --bind /home/Sues9/installroot /installroot
Any ideas on a proper NFS setup.
Thanks
