SubjectIP Autoconfig Not Working on Sparc32 (2.4.17-rc1)
Hello,

I have a Sun Javastation Krups which is happily booting linux-2.4.1
from the network and using nfsroot.

However, trying to get a more recent kernel working.

It's compiling fine and boots, but doesn't seem to do all the bootp /
ip autoconfig stuff - it just complains about no nfs server (which
obviosuly wont work if it doesn't get the ip etc from bootp first).


Server log when trying to boot the 2.4.17-rc1 looks like this:

Dec 14 23:36:01 slinky dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:20:94:77:a4 via

If I swap back to my trusty 2.4.1, I get this:

[this is where it boots the kernel]

Dec 14 23:41:51 slinky rpc.mountd: authenticated mount request from
192.168.0.21:800 for /export/javastation/iclinux (/export/javastation)


See the extra BOOTP stuff on the end?


I tried passing things like ip=192.168.0.21:192.168.0.11 and ip=bootp
on the command line, but nothing seems to work.


Any ideas?


Thanks!

Ian
