Hi!
After several unsuccessful attempts of booting my 5000/120 diskless
KN 02-BA 5.7e - I was happy to find my problem described in the archive:
if error nfs_boot: getfh - no pathname
then bootptab rp=/export/<mynode>/root (possibly less than 16 characters)
BUT ... my problem persists!
>> boot 3/tftp ends with ...
873824
...
...
nfs_boot: getfh - no pathname
...
btw: I ALLWAYS have to do boot 3/tftp twice (first time always ?FNF: 3/tftp/)
second time the kernel is found but does not find the rootpath. bootp -d5 :
bootfile="" (?FNF: 3/tftp/)
...
bootfile="/tftpboot/pmax/nfsnetbsd" booting ...
...
bootfile="" (nfs_boot: getfh - no pathname)
Does anybody have an idea?
Many thanks in advance
Anton
