Hi Community,
I have built an image using Yocto for the MX6Quad SABRE Board, and I am attempting to load the kernel, device tree, and root filesystem from a network share. I have stored all three items on the same network share "/nfsroot", and when I boot my board I am able to download and install the kernel and the device tree binary. However, U-Boot complains about the location of the rootfs, but the filesystem is on the share as the kernel and device tree.
U-BOOT Configuration:
setenv serverip 10.0.0.66
setenv ipaddr 10.0.0.57
setenv nfsroot /nfsroot
setenv image zImage
setenv fdt_file imx6q-sabresd.dtb
setenv ip_dyn no
setenv netargs 'setenv bootargs console=${console},${baudrate} ${smp} root=/dev/nfs rootwait rw ip=ip=10.0.0.57:10.0.0.66:10.0.0.0:255.255.255.0:off:eth0:off rootpath=10.0.0.66:/nfsroot,v3,tcp'
