Subject: nfsroot mount options
Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2010 19:18:21 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101202001821.GA12638@merit.edu> (raw)
If I boot diskless with nfsroot, why is the root file system mounted
readonly? This makes sense for a file system on disk, since it may have to
be checked before remounting rw, but I don't see why this is needed for
nfsroot.
Also, Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt says that only nfs options
can be given on the kernel nfsroot option, but I've seen a claim that you
can also put "rw" here. Are other generic options possible? How about the
nfs options that aren't listed in the doc? Should the doc be updated?
