i am trying to install cooker (actually the snf there) via nfs, i have the 
network image on a floppy, i boot and follow the prompts, it gets the stage 
where the install  mounts thew shared volume and i get:
/usr/bin/perl: error while loading shared libraries: o.6: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory.......

on the box that is sharing the volume i have tried all combinations of 
root_squash/no_root_squash, rw/ro and insecure options, i gave the volume 
full 0777 permissions just to make sure and whatever i do i get this message, 
using the same boot floppy i can do an ftp install so i don't think that is 
broken, i must be missing something, i asked on the cooker list since this is 
a cooker install floppy but i've had no reply, i must be missing something 
abou nfs but i can't find anything else - the box i wish to install on has 
been installed via nfs from the same sharing machine before -,
i even tried mounting the shared volume (which is a seperate partition on its 
own box) as ext2 as opposed to ext3 in case that made a difference but it 
didn't

the volume that is being shared holds a copy of cooker that is rsynced 
regularly, recently i have rsynced it from several places and i am fairly 
sure all files are actually present though a pointer to which file this 
message might refer to would be useful, i believe it to be mdkinst_stage2.bz2 
since 'loading stage 2' would be the next step in the install, if so i have 
deleted it several times and rsynced just to make sure it is fine, according 
to alt-f3 on the install box the volume is mounted fine and there is a message
to the effect of 'disengaging life support system'

i'm at hair tearing stage so any ideas would be useful

bascule
