Archived from groups: comp>os>linux>networking (more info?)

Hi,

I did a diskless boot of pxelinux.0. From the prompt, I booted the vmlinux,
which comes with RedHat 8.0 and appended root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp nfsroot=...

Then I got the error:

VFS: Cannot open root device "nfs" or "00:ff"
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:ff

I suppose the vmlinuz-Kernel isnt suitable for an nfs root file system. How
can I patch it or where do I get a nfs-able kernel?
