Hello,
this post is more a braindump to get my head clear than a real
question, but
if you have any suggestions you are more than welcome.
Ok, this is the starting point: HP Bladecenter BL c-Class with
BL460c G1
blades. So far so good. We have a new FAI setup with version 3.2.4.
The FAI
server is a seperate maschine.
We have a very similar setup, although we're using FAI 3.1.8, not 3.2.4
PXE booting work fine, but when the blade should mount the nfsroot
it simply
hangs. I tried several stock Debian kernels.
Hmm - I don't think we had any such problems as that. We have about
250 BL460c blades successfully FAI-installed.
- Is there a way to get more verbose output from the kernel what he is
trying to mount?
I take it the messages you're reporting are what you're seeing on the
console via the OA?
- Are there other ways to debug the problem?
tcpdump on the NFS server, to see if you see the mount request at all?
