In doing more web searching, I see that this error is one that has =
come up due to
ZFS changes to mountroot, so I thought I should include freebsd-fs in my =
inquiry.
I have a sparc64 Netra X1 tftploading the loader, kernel, and modules. =
My intent
is to netboot it to install into a ZFS pool onto it's discs (It has no =
optical drive, and
no ability to boot from USB).
As I noted to freebsd-sparc64, even when I set=20
=
vfs.root.mountfrom=3D"nfs:206.138.151.36:/data/nfs-exports/sparc64-freebsd=
9"
in my /boot/loader.conf on the tftp server, The only result I get is =
the issue above,
where it seems to be looking at [], and failing with error 19. Is error =
19 specific
to ZFS changes, or very generic within mountroot, and only means what =
I'd already
feared, that it's simply failing to make the network connection?
Just an inquiry. Won't pester freebsd-fs unless there's a reason to =
think it might
be related to ZFS. Was hard to tell from mailing list archives where =
there were
many comments that the "error 19" was new to some ZFS changes.
Thanks.
