I tried this and got no further. I decided to focus on the 0.0.0.0 business and added a
option next-server 10.222.0.1; to my dhcpd conf. This did the trick. Apparently some ROM boot clients resort to 0.0.0.0 and connect to nothing if the next-server option is not used. So, I am much closer. Now I see the Boot Installer option screen and get on down the road to Trying to mount root from nfs: NFS ROOT: 10.222.0.1:/cdrom/boot sis0: link state changed to UP and that is where it grinds to a halt. I did the gzip -d on the tftpboot/boot/boot/mfsroot.gz, which is the only place I could find the mfsroot. I also corrected my path accordingly. Here is the thing - I am booting to the CD. I cannot unzip the mfsroot on the CD. jkv wrote: > > I actually had the very same problem last week, as far as i remember you > have to gzip -d boot/mfsroot on the machine who are servering files(NFS > or TFTP) to your soekris during install. > > Regards, > jkv > _______________________________________________ > Soekris-tech mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/pxe-boot-problems-4501-to-FreeBSD-6.2-box-tp18739392p18861534.html Sent from the Soekris - Technical mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
