[K12OSN] K12LTSP Server Boot Problems

[Doug Simpson]

I had problems with one booting and hanging on NFS, too.

What I did was to boot in single user mode (that doesn't attempt to load 
NFS) and once it is up, you can run filesystem checks and whatever else 
you can think of to repair the installation. . .

Then just reboot again and see if it fixed it.  It is possible that just 
a fsck will do it, but remember, you may need to boot from some other 
media to be able to do fsck on unmounted filesystems. KNOPPIX will work 
here or just about any other linux bootable CD or set you created when 
you installed (if you actually did create the set. . .I am bad about not 
doing that but I have KNOPPIX and others laying around anyway. . .)

It will help if you have records of your filesystems on hand before you 
start the processes do you will know what partitions contain what 
filesystems, etc. . .
