[Ltsp-discuss] hangs on pivot_root

[Denny S. <lin...@4l...>]

hi,

i have some problems, the client hangs on pivot_root and i don't know
why, both system are gentoo Linux.

(Name debian Kernel 2.4) (Name win2k Kernel 2.6.2)
DHCP/TFTP Server	X / NFS Server
    |			    |
    |			    |
    ------------||-----------

	   LTSP Client
	  (Name abdel Kernel 2.4.24-ltsp-1)
	=09

The Client stops with the message "Doing the pivot_root nfs: server
192.168.3.30 not responding, still trying."

If i stop the NFS Server, the client get's a kernel panic. I double
checked all necessary files.

dhcpd.conf (on DHCP Server:

option root-path        "192.168.3.30:/opt/ltsp/i386";
filename                      "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.22-ltsp-2";

# abdel
host abdel {
        hardware ethernet 00:60:08:a4:8a:dc;
        fixed-address 192.168.3.12;
        option root-path        "192.168.3.30:/opt/ltsp/i386";
        filename                "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.24-ltsp-1";
        }
