 |
|
Hey Folks,
I am attempting to install Gentoo on a beagleboard, which is based on ARMv7 I believe.
I have an Angstrom kernel I am booting from that will mount an nfsroot for me but it dies after mounting the NFS share. I have confirmed that NFS is working properly from another machine on the network.
The location its pointing to is based on an nfsroot from here: http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/arm/
Here is the error:
| Code: |

It is my understanding that it should be running /linuxrc at this point to begin loading the OS correct?
Here are the lines from the beginning of the kernel load:

Have a look at http://neuvoo.org.
What did you put on the nfsroot? Have you tried using init=/bin/bash? |

You must use an external power supply instead of USB power, even if you have no periperals (well I'm just monitoring the output over RS-232 and doing nothing else, when my kernel panics).
I got the 5Vdc wall wart from Special Computing and it fixed my kernel panic problem.

You work it manually, it has somewhat better performance, but it's really for the fun of it. |
