I'm back with another query for a BSP.....NFS mounting.
wb.
Kernel panic:VFS:Unable to mount root fs on 00:ff
Is'nt it linux's most feared error ? And the "panic" word doesn't help much =)
What is this "00:ff" and what is wrong with /dev/nfs?
Funnily I remembered a tech-support query joke on the same lines: "Who is this General Error and why is he trying to access my drive"
created this pseudo -device as follows :
mknod -m 644 nfs c 0 255
All said and done I'll put my money on the rootfstype flag. If you've compiled the filesytem into the kernel then fine, else this is a saviour.
