[BProc] etherboot image

[Andrew S. <sh...@in...>]

Hi,

I'm building a cluster with NICs already set to use DHCP
and tftp to boot up.  I told beoboot to create a separate
phase 2 kernel and ramdisk instead of single image, and
then I used etherboot's mknbi-linux to make the tagged
image these cards expect.

I know that the root filesystem is a tmpfs, but when the
slave boots it says it mounted root (romfs readonly) and
then it says it cannot open the root device "nfs" or 00:ff
and finally it tells me to I need to append a correct
"root=" option.

What would the correct one be?  I couldn't tell from
/etc/beowulf/fstab

Thanks for any help,

Andrew
