Hi there, I had, as several others too, the following problem: When mounting the root-filesystem via nfs, I could not telnet anymore to my target board. Telnet client always gave me the error message: "telnetd: all network ports in use". The ttyp*-devices were present and had the correct permissions as I use the ELDK. The simple solution was just to add the no_root_squash parameter to the exports file of my nfs-server and everything just worked fine.
Hope this will help. Greetings Markus ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
