Subject: Diskless PC
Hello,
I have a diskless PC (only CPU, memory, ethernet and floppy)
whose boot sequence involves the following process:
- obtain an IP address by DHCP protocol,
- stablish a TFTP connection to a server and fetch a kernel,
- load the kernel in memory,
- and mount an NFS exported directory as a root file system.
This process works well with Linux RedHat 5.2 but not with
RedHat greater or equal to 6.0 version, the process stops
when it tray to mount the NFS exported directory during the
execution of the rc.sysinit script, indicating that there is
no write permissions for some archives, one of them is /etc/mtab.
Somebody can help me to resolv this problem?
Thank you in advance.
