Hm... as you are putting efforts into NFS support... Here comes a more general question: I wonder if it's worth the work on NFS at all, or if we should remove NFS support from U-Boot alltogether? 1) We support only NFS v2 (and v3) in U-Boot, and most standard Linux distros support only v4 in their default configurations. 2) We support only UDP, but most standard Linux distros support only TCP in their default configurations (see [1]) [1] http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/nfs-utils.git;a=commitdiff;h=fbd7623dd8d5e418e7cb369d4026d5368f7c46a6 Try a NFS download from any recent Linux distro (i. e. one including nfs-utils 2.3.1 or later)... I feel a half-way solution is unsatisfactory, but the way for the Real Thing (TM) is a pretty long one... The fact that nobody compained yet that NFS stopped working fo him suggests that there are only very, very few users of NFS at all. If one of these is willing to step up and fix this for real, he is of course more than welcome. But if not - should we not remove the more or less obsolete code?
