NFS built in Kernel for Dockstar/Goflex

Postby Sagittarius » Mon Dec 15, 2014 8:01 pm

I use several Dockstar/Goflex net.
I'd like to boot via TFTP/NFS using stock Archlinux kernel.

Would it be possible to have an NFS built-in kernel for Archlinuxarm users ?

For the time being I have to use another kernel to be able to nfsboot.
Uboot parameters:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'i')paddr=192.168.0.103
tftpserverip=192.168.0.99
net_bootcmd=tftpboot 0x2000000 $net_image_name;setenv bootargs $console $net_bootargs nfsroot=$tftpserverip:$net_rootpath ip=$ipaddr:$tftpserverip$bootargs_end $mvNetConfig $mvPhoneConfig; bootm 0x2000000;
mvPhoneConfig=mv_phone_config=dev0:fxs,dev1:fxs
net_bootargs=root=/dev/nfs rw
bootargs_end=:::DB88FXX81:eth0:none
netretry=no
mvNetConfig=mv_net_config=($ethaddr,0:1:2:3),mtu=1500
net_rootpath=/volume1/sta3,v3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp
net_image_name=/3/boot/uImage

You need an initramfs as well, IIRC, but it should be possible if you can identify all the needs.

Don't know if it may help, but the kernel I use is this one: http://216.146.103.100/sheeva/3/3.8/3.8.13/release/1/
with this config patch: http://216.146.103.100/sheeva/3/3.8/3.8 ... nfig.patch
