Though, on really tiny systems you might still want to manually create all device nodes statically during image create time. In that special case, the device node names will be available in the build directory .../rootfs, but they will be regular files, not device nodes. If you don't know about this, it's quite likely you don't have to bother with this at the moment. > > Thus, you really should be using the tarball when you want to run an > > nfsroot. > Tried again but again it didn't work, do you have an idea what could be wrong > ? What steps have you taken? How have you unpacked and exported the rootfs? If you have export e.g. /export/rootfs, it's usually enough (for a simple image at least) to run `sudo tar xf ....rootfs.tar.bz2`.
