NFS as root fileystem
 

Hi,
I was interested in configuring NFS as root filesystem through kernel command line. I am not able to understand the difference between "nfsroot=" and "root=/dev/nfs"

Thanks

The kernel needs to know two things:
1. "root=/dev/nfs" Use an NFS filesystem type as the root filesystem.
2. "nfsroot= " The NFS filesystem to use as '/' is.... your.file.server:/path/to/nfs/root/share

Thanks rod...
