Hi I am experimenting with setting up a freebsd server to boot diskless clients. I am currently running 4.8R. I've followed the instructions found in the handbook and augmented that with the comments found in /usr/share/examples/diskless/clone_root.
My problem is with the cloned root filesystem. It does not appear that the /conf/* directories are overriding the contents found in /diskless_root/etc. What happens is, I boot up via etherboot, the kernel downloads and loads up successfully. When it comes time to process the information in /etc, it is actually reading the cloned config files from the server. In particular, fstab...I have a modified fstab in /conf/default/etc yet the cloned fstab is still being read. Can anyone who has had experience setting up diskless clients offer some suggestions? thanks robin _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
