 Posted: Thu Jul 12, 2007 4:54 am Post subject: Can't mount an NFS share [SOLVED] |
 |
|
i am running on of the liveCDs and i can't mount NFS shares
livecd ~ # mount 10.0.0.2:/storage /root/fs
mount: 10.0.0.2:/storage: can't read superblock
livecd ~ #
Those commands work fine on my mac, and i think solaris too
The file server is FreeBSD 6.0
do i need to add extra stuff to my exports file for gentoo?

yes, there are no firewalls and gentoo is in the same subnet as the NFS server
# cat /etc/exports
/storage -network 10.0.0.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
/dvdImages -network 10.0.0.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
/share -network 10.0.0.0 -mask 255.255.255.0
#
gentoo is 10.0.0.102
is this supposed to work on the liveCD?
do i need to install/configure something first? |

isn't your mount command a little short for linux?

i don't think so, i think the problem is missing RPC deamons |

Is portmap running on the client machine? Without portmap mounting nfs shares can take ages!
cheers

thank you Veldrin,
i googled "gentoo portmap" and found out i have to run this first
# /etc/init.d/portmap start
then the mount command works
the -t option is not necessary in this case |

No problem. We are here to help.
| Quote: | | i googled "gentoo portmap" and found out i have to run this first |
[note to myself, assume less, explain more]
and if you don't want to do this on every boot (assuming a fixed install, no liveCD)
| Code: | | # rc-update -a portmap default |
which adds portmap to the default runlevel.
cheers

One more thing, please add [SOLVED] to the subject, if the problem is fixed. |
