Dear All,
I run an installation of some diskless clients.
They are currently using Xubuntu 8.04 and it is working great.
Since Xubuntu 9.10 really seems to be faster, I have tried to get it working in parallel, but I cannot get it to boot. Here is what I have done:
Installed Xubuntu 9.10 on hard disk
Copied files from installation into server
Changed initramfs.conf (modules=netboot and root=nfs)
chrooted in and ran update-initramfs
Copied vmlinux and initramfs into my tftp server
So... the 2.6.31-16 kernel boots (NFS root exported rw for testing), does its apparmor setup, sets up preliminary keyboard map and stops... any ideas?
Thanks!
