failure to mount NFS root
I compiled a 2.6.24.1 kernel for a debian 4 machine to support nfs root but it isn't working.
On boot I see:
Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...
Done.
ALERT! /dev/nfs does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
Check your root= boot argument (cat /proc/cmdline)
Check for missing modules (cat /proc/modules), or device files (ls /dev)
I enabled CONFIG_NFS_FS, CONFIG_ROOT_NFS, and CONFIG_IP_PNP in the kernel config.
The kernel parameters I'm using are:
root=/dev/nfs rw nfsroot=192.168.0.1:/nfs_root ip=192.168.0.2:192.168.0.1:192.168.0.1:255.255.255.0:deb4:eth0:off
Any ideas why it doesn't work?
