 |
|
I have a openmosix cluster where each node mounts "/" over NFS. A problem arises when I try to shutdown/reboot - eth0 is brought down and consequently "/" is unmounted, so /sbin/init is unable to complete the runlevel.
So my question is, how does one disable the "stop" routine from net.eth0 - without breaking other init scripts? Has anyone run into this? |

remove or comment out
ifconfig ${IFACE} down &>/dev/null
in /etc/init.d/net.eth0
ok - this is no 'clean' solution (and may not work) but this is what i would try, and i think your NIC shouldnt mind being powered off w/o ifdown

Would it be possible to put /sbin/init onto a ramdisk? Then it would be able to change the runlevel even without having eth0?

Would this leave eth0 still up when the machine powers down? |

I'm not sure. I am booting from floppy and mounting my root over NFS, so how would I deliver the ramdrive image? tftp? And is this different from an "initrd" in any way?
I think I'm gonna hit Google. I'll post my findings, if any |
