It's an XPC860SRZP50C1. I have another board with no ethernet which has an XPC860ZP33C1 or an XPC860DEZP25A3 (this is on an older board). The XPC860SRZP50C1 is a SAR processor though we are not using any of the SAR capabilities on this board. I hope this processor is fine. > Do you have a /bin/sh on your initrd?

The shell works fine if I use initrd so it should work fine from an nfsroot (I would assume). > Also, try running your NFS server in the foreground in a debug mode if > it isn't being used by other hosts.
