> > I found the problem. The bug is in locore.s. The following patch fixes NFS booting. The change to use the newer opt_nfsroot.h instead of opt_nfs.h was good, but the #ifdef for NFS also needed to be changed to NFS_ROOT. > > That was it - locore just wasn't copying the NFS info from its passed-in args into the kernel global nfs_diskless, so there was no data for the kernel to use to boot. Thanks for tracking this down; I've just committed your fix. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
