I was goint to snip all of this, but I'll comment that you are apparently exporting from goose64 to itself. You seem to have an nfs root installation prepared for eagle64, but this is the fstab for goose64. I'm probably misreading, and I don't have any experience of using nfsroot. > > The above is the fstab on the NFS exported root filesystem, system is LFS 7.1 > based. > > Two problems, tmpfs doesn't mount on /run and /run doesn't get created. > The /usr and /home filesystems don't mount and wc which is under /usr/bin is > not found. > > If I didn't know any better, I'd say that the fstab is never getting read. > For all boot problems where it is clear that the machine has found its kernel and apparently booted it without catastrophic problems, the next step is the fun option of "init=/bin/bash". I don't know how, or if, you can specify that on a netboot, but if you can, you would get a r/o root filesystem and be able to step through the options in /etc/rc.d/rcS.d and then through the options of your default runlevel, until something fails. Beyond that, use of nfs with LFS is not at all common, nfsroot even less, so maybe nobody will have any ideas [ said hoping to be proved wrong - I know there are a lot of people who read the lsits but never post! ] ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
