To clarify, when using nfsroot with the current kernel & unfsd options, my boot stops, waits for the nfs root to appear, and then times out. When trying to mount normally (ie: via `mount -t nfs` of a very recent vintage in arch-linux), I get immediate "protocol family not supported" errors. With this change, both mount methods (nfsroot with new kernel options and normally mount) work without issue. > I'm honestly not sure how anyone was using this for nfsroot support. > Maybe an initramfs with a version of nfs-utils that could handle the > mountprog/nfsprog option was in use? Not sure. Or is there some yocto kernel patch to enable support for it? I'm running a custom kernel. -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
