similar to: Using different NFS server

Hi to all, ?I'm trying to install PXE boot + NFS for diskless boot for Linux system. So everything looks fine until I tried to use other NFS server to mount root file system. So I try just to change parameter in pxelinux.cfg files Append nfsroot=to_new_nfs_server:/new_root_dir But in boot process I received rootserver: TFTP/DHCP server rootpath: <empty>

hi, i trying to install a fai installation server in a DomU for DomUs, but i have some problems with nfs. The DomUs says, that they can''t reach the NFS Server =========== Begin: Retrying nfs mount ...

Hello, if ipconfig is run as ipconfig :::::: (i.e. long spec with all fields empty) and the computer has multiple network interfaces and only one of them is connected to dhcp managed network, ipconfig ends up in an infinite loop (see the log bellow). The following patch solved this for me. According to README, if the <device> in the long spec is empty, the first interface should be

Hello all, I have finally successfully booted a diskless NFS Gentoo client and I am very pleased with it! I only have one issue left I'd like to understand; the master Gentoo server that I based my diskless image from boots nicely via dhcp and accepts the hostname parameter its DHCP server passes along with its leased IP address. I have posted in the Gentoo forum, but thought I'd post

From: Geert Stappers <stappers at debian.org> To make klibc-ipconfig transmit the DHCP vendor class "d-i" and get the DHCP preseeding filename in a text file, it needs the attached patch. belows patch allows ipconfig to be used in Debian installer once the hostname is sent too, see http://blog.andrew.net.au/2006/05/17#d-i_dhcp_hacking Signed-off-by: maximilian attems <maks at

DHCP options like domain-name or hostname are written to /tmp/net-$DEVICE.conf which is typically later used by other scripts to determine the network configuration. This is done by sourcing the /tmp/net-$DEVICE.conf file to get all defined variables. This patch escapes the DHCP options written to /tmp/net-$DEVICE.conf to prevent arbitrary code execution.

Hi. trying to get a domU (dom1) up using nfs root. never done this before ;-). I have dom0 up (2.6.12-xen0) and i have an external nfs server with a nice root disk populated. i get this after xm create -c dom1 vmid=1 . . .

Hi guys, Maybe one of you quickly can tell me if the x86_64 kernel configuration option CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION is supposed to work under Xen? I''ve used an ia32 root file system together with CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION inside qemu-system-x86_64 for quite a while now (without xen). It works pretty well. However, when I try this with xen-unstable-9514 all I get is general protection errors...

i saw a screen shot of knoppix beeing run under xen but for some reason i can''t do that. here if the config file i use. > kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6-xenU" > memory = 64 > name = "ttylinux" > nics = 1 > ip = "1.2.3.4" > disk = [''phy:hdc,hdd,r''] > root = "/dev/hdd ro" hdc is my cdrom and it was unmounted at

Hi i''m trying to run Xen on my amd64. Installed is Debian 3.1 sarge i386 and Xen 2.0.7, my whole enviroment is 32 bit. When i''m running a xenU domain and use /var/xen/samba as a ext2 fs file ( file:/var/xen/samba,hda1,w ) everything goes according to plan. If i use my LVM partition ( phy:/dev/xen/samba-ha,hda1,w ) it gives during boot: -------- ... NET:

Whilst ip= command is documented to support dns0:dns1 options as arguments 7 and 8, the -d parser in ipconfig does not. This breaks bringing up static ip configuration with dns nameservers set in the ip= command. Testcase: $ ip link add name dummy0 type dummy $ sudo /usr/lib/klibc/bin/ipconfig -d 10.245.237.7::10.245.237.1:255.255.255.0:ottawa:dummy0:none:8.8.8.8:8.8.4.4 IP-Config: dummy0

I was having trouble restarting xend; oftentimes, after I stopped it, it wouldn''t start again. The problem was that xend was unable to open /dev/xen/evtchn because the device was already open. When xend brought up a network interface, I had it set to call a network script that configured DHCP for the new interface. Since dhcpd doesn''t support reloading its configuration, I

Hi all, I tried to boot up a VM using two options (a) reading boot information from a config file (b) adding boot information directly to the command line. However, I got "IP-Config: Unable to set interface netmask (-22)" problem when using option (b). For (a), I don''t have such problem. The boot information for both (a) and (b) is same. Could you please let me know what I am

Hi, ipconfig is used in ltsp (thin clients) initramfs. Some of the users have to have 2 dhcp servers in ltsp environments, so they hit on this problem: The first dhcp request is from the pxe rom boot code. This code ignores any dhcp offers that don't have a filename field. So they always get the correct address, from the ltsp server. The second dhcp request (in initramfs) is done by

hello, Preparing my first klibc maintainenace release. :) My plan is to have the patches cook in klibc-queue and once everythings is fine deploy them in the main klibc repo. Please test/review belows patches. I plan to release the current queue really soon for klibc 1.5.20 due to the urgent ipconfig fixes. For now you find my patch queue on:

Hi, I''m trying to run Xen 3.0 on my amd64 UP machine. So far xen0 is working fine but there is a problem with mounting rootfs on xenU kernel.
