I recently rebased my kernel tree and discovered that my nfsroot setup no longer worked. Here's the relevat part of my cmdline:
ip=192.168.2.200:192.168.2.185:192.168.2.1:255.255.255.0::eth0:off nfsroot=192.168.2.185:/my_nfsroot,v3,tcp root=/dev/nfs I discovered that now I had to change the autoconfiguration option to "on" in order to make nfsroot work. I only want to specify the IP address manually so I don't really want autoconfiguration. The current code works since it will not try autoconfiguration when all options are specified manually but the current behaviour does not really match the documentation ie. now the autoconf parameter can disable the whole IP configuration step even though the documentation says it will only disable autoconfiguration.
