I'm setting up a number of diskless boxes for booting over PXE with nfsroot. As far as I can tell, NFSv4 doesn't work for nfsroot (something about idmapd not being able to run early enough), so I force my clients to use nfsv3. With this however, I keep seeing mount.nfs report "Protocol not supported".

After some debugging, I determined that /etc/protocols and /etc/netconfig were required for mount.nfs to work. My initrd was built with features nfs and network, but when I added those two files, my nfsroot finally worked.

Update - on a Factory (12.2 beta2) install/update just yesterday, I had to rebuild the initrd anyway, and /etc/protocols and /etc/netconfig are now included correctly. As far as I'm concerned, that means the problem is solved. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
