I'm trying to boot diskless my notebook. I create boot floppy disk on which i place kernel.gz boot/loader boot/loader.rc boot/device.hints (it's just modified kern.flp from 5.1-RELEASE distro with my own kernel) Kernel on that disk built with options options NFSCLIENT options NFS_ROOT and device cbb device pccard device cardbus device miibus device rl In /boot/loader.rc i place lines: set boot.netif.ip="172.16.0.9" set boot.netif.netmask="255.255.255.192" set boot.netif.gateway="172.16.0.1" set boot.netif.hwaddr="00:a0:0c:90:90:06" set boot.nfsroot.server="172.16.0.8" set boot.nfsroot.path="/backup/nfsroot" set boot.nfsroot.nfshandle="01" Kernel loads from that floppy, it's starts. But shows next error: ... Timecounters tick every 10.000 msec nfs_diskless: no interface rl0: <Realtek 8139 10/100BaseTX CardBus> port 0x1000-0x10ff mem 0x88002000-0x880021ff irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus1 ... So, it looks like NFSCLIENT tryes to detect boot interface before cardbus Realtek-based pccard is initialised. What can i do, for normal disskless booting? P.S. I build kernel and with BOOTP, BOOTP_NFSROOT, but kernel goes in panic, when don't find network interface. -- Vitaly Markitantov mailto: vm@dics.com.ua
