Hello
I have Got A Ixzora Cariier board and Apalis Imx.8qm Module.
I’m trying to boot a system using NFS/TFTP Server(Static Mode).
My OS host system is Ubuntu 20.04.
I could load kernel (zimage) and dtb using Static configuration and boot kernel but nfs root-file-system mount is failing:
There is the result of log

i wrote a script bootloader to boot kernel zImage and DTB as bellow:

 

Spoiler
setenv my_bootcmd_dhcp 'echo Boot NFS static. . .;  
	setenv devtype tftp; 
	printenv devtype;
	 if test "${devtype}" = "tftp";
	 	setenv ipaddr "10.42.0.80";
	 	setenv serverip "10.42.0.1";
	 	setenv rootpath "srv/fs";
	 	printenv rootpath;
		setenv fdt_file imx8qm-apalis-ixora-v1.2.dtb
		source ${scriptaddr};
	  then
	  	 echo "finish . . .***";
	  fi'


run my_bootcmd_dhcp

My exports file,

Spoiler

/srv/fs *(no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,rw)

after that
sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
sudo mount core-image-minimal-apalis-imx8.ext4 /srv/fs

 

sudo exportfs -r 
 sudo exportfs -u

and ftp config

 

 
 
$ sudo gedit /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
service tftp
{
	protocol = udp
	port = 69
	socket_type = dgram
	wait = yes
	user = nobody
	server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
	server_args = /tftpboot
	disable = no
}

and run:

$ sudo mkdir /tftp
$ sudo chmod -R 777 /srv/tftp
$ sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

 Any idea, how we can boot NFS static the I.mx8 apalis device rootfs?
Best regards,
