I even suspected this but this line *Starting dropbear sshd: generating rsa key... generating dsa key... OK* and the OK pulled me off the track. One more thing can you tell me what does the OK mean there... My mask is mask=255.0.0.0 so it is able to get the NFS server location I typed a wrong command after changing the commands i find no difference On Sun, Jun 19, 2011 at 11:22 PM, Dave Hylands wrote: > Hi Projish, > > On Sun, Jun 19, 2011 at 8:24 AM, Prajosh Premdas > wrote: > > Hi > > Please find the entire boot sequence here > > RomBOOT > ...snip... > > TCP cubic registered > > NET: Registered protocol family 17 > > rtc-at91sam9 at91_rtt.0: hctosys: unable to read the hardware clock > > IP-Config: Guessing netmask 255.0.0.0 > > IP-Config: Complete: > > device=eth0, addr=10.220.4.200, mask=255.0.0.0, gw=10.220.4.35, > > host=10.220.4.200, domain=, nis-domain=(none), > > bootserver=255.255.255.255, rootserver=10.0.0.1, rootpath= > > eth0: link up (100/Full) > > VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem) on device 0:12. > > So it looks like your root file system was mounted successfully. > > > Freeing init memory: 128K > > All message from this point onwards come from init. > > > Starting network... > > ip: RTNETLINK answers: File exists > > Starting dropbear sshd: generating rsa key... generating dsa key...
