Ok Ive setup a diskless machine. I did have it working yesterday however today its not working and I have no clue why.

I am using pxelinux (not grub)
here is the relevent pxelinux entry.

Code:

 kernel pxelinux/gentoopxe/i686/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.17.6
 append root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp nfsroot=172.20.0.2:/exports/gentoopxe/i686 wsize=1024


Exports

Code:

/exports        172.20.0.0/255.255.0.0(async,rw,no_root_squash)


My file system for the diskless machine is in /exports/gentoopxe/i686
I have a link for pxelinux kernel from /tftpboot/pxelinux/gentoopxe/i686 to /exports/gentoopxe/i686/boot

Does anyone have any ideas?

The only thing I did since it was working is upgrade glibc(in the diskless node). Think that broke it?


Solution:

I missed the / in my fstab somehow I guess i deleted that character out of the fstab line.
