Dear All,

Am unable to mount the roots using NFS I verified, NFS server from linux pc is getting started & running, this is straining me so much, I am trying to set statically, dont want to do it dynamically, am stcuk in this from 3 days.. could any body pls let me know hw to get rid of this problem once for all :smileysad:, I followed the I.mx28 BSP UG, u-boot_mx28, step by step user guide, but still am facing the same issue, kindly do the needful as soon as possible with fully detailed procedure to get rid of this problem

I have been struggling quite some time as well to get nfs boot working as it should. One of the problems I finally had, was caused by not setting the "no_root_squash" option on the nfs server host side. After I added this (to the /etc/exports on Ubuntu) and restarted the nfs service, things were OK.

Ruud

LeonardoSandova · ‎09-20-2013

In the official documentation, does the "no_root_squash" string missing?

Leo

slay · ‎10-24-2013

No, it is there. At least in the "i.MX28_Linux_BSP_UG". But at first I had things up and running on a Debian machine.

Later I switched to a new Ubuntu and then forgot about this option.

Ruud

srinivasanshanm · ‎09-29-2013

Thanks a lot for your response & support the issue is resolved , after setting the appropriate bootargs & with the above configuration & ip address for board & PC

LeonardoSandova · ‎09-13-2013

Are you able to mount that folder on your HOST machine? is the NFS service running?

Leo

srinivasanshanm · ‎09-13-2013

Yes the service is running, am able to mount that folder on HOST
