I have a Cobalt RaQ2+ model R28 CC0 FIU. My front panel buttons do not
work as the FAQ says they should. Holding the left and right cursor keys
starts a netboot rather than booting /usr/games/.doug, no matter what I
do, I can not break into the debugger (tried the reset button, tried
holding all 4 cursor keys, etc) Is there something different with this
model? Anyone have any luck getting into the debugger on a 2+?
Also, I have my DHCP and NFS server set up as follows:
dhcpd.conf contains:
host raq {
hardware ethernet 00:10:e0:00:38:95;
fixed-address 10.10.0.253;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.128;
option root-path "/nfsroot";
}
my /etc/exports file contains:
/nfsroot -mapall=nobody
# showmount -e
Exports list on localhost:
/nfsroot Everyone
# ls /nfsroot/
altroot home stand
base.tar kern.tar sys
bin misc.tar text.tar
boot mnt tmp
comp.tar netbsd usr
dev netbsd.GENERIC.gz var
etc root
games.tar sbin
contains all the binary tarballs extracted.
Do I have to specify the IP/name of the NFS server? I read the whole
archive and no one said how they set up the NFS server and got the cobalt
to mount nfsroot from it. As far as I can tell, the damn thing doesnt
boot, just sits there saying "Net booting"
Am I missing something obvious?
