Hi guys,
I have a problem trying to use pxe and nfs install on
an IBM x366 box. I'd like to mention that I have this
configuration working on a different hardware.
The server boots using pxe but when in tries to do an
nfs mount it times out.
Here are the messages on the client (Alt+F3):
- eth1 has link, using it
- doing kickstart... setting it up
- waiting for link...
- 2 seconds
- reverse name lookup failed
- url is 192.168.1.10:/images/AS3.0U6-x366/kslapp.cfg
- file location:
nfs://192.168.1.10:/images/AS3.0U6-x366/kslapp.cfg
- failed to mount nfs source
- trying to mount device hda
At this point I'm prompted for the type of install and
if I choose nfs then it works fine but I'm not able to
use kickstart....
On the pxe server in the logs I can see:
tftp: client does not accept options
The pxe configuration for this box is:
default RHEL-AS3.0U6-x366
label RHEL-AS3.0U6-x366
kernel RHEL-AS3.0U6-x366/vmlinuz
append initrd=RHEL-AS3.0U6-x366/initrd.img
ramdisk_size=7000
ks=nfs:192.168.1.10:/images/AS3.0U6-x366/kslapp.cfg
ksdevice
=link
ipappend 1
Any help would be appreciated,
Thx,
Gabriel
