LinuxPPC Embedded: root nfs boot problems.

[Brendan Simon <bsimon@ctam.com.au>]

I am trying to boot embedded-2.2.5 kernel using a nfsr root filesystem.
Here is a log of the console session.  I get a "neighbour table
overflow" error.  What does this mean ?  I have a look in the source but
can't figure out what is happening.

Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
