Hi I am a newbie to u-boot and embedded linux. I am trying to build a development environment around a Freescale P4080DS board. Presently, I want the target to boot from a kernel image in flash and to mount an NFS root filesystem. This is not working.
Target ip addr: 172.29.68.13 Host ip addr: 172.29.68.252 I have set environment variable bootargs to: bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/nfs rw ip=172.29.68.13 nfsroot=172.29.68.252:<my file system path> and have saved that value to Flash using saveenv. I think I have two problems: Firstly, I have not installed an NFS server on the host. Well, I should be able to do that. Secondly, after boot, the host cannot ping the target, and vice versa. On the target I see: root@p4080ds:~# ifconfig fm1-gb1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:04:9F:02:01:FD inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::204:9fff:fe02:1fd/64 Scope:Link etc. Why is the ip address shown as 192.168.1.100 but I set it as 172.29.68.13 in bootargs? Any advice would be much appreciated. Best regards David _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
