[parisc-linux] build errors, recipe still not up to date?

[Mike Brancato]

I've been folowing the recipe step by step, yet i still get build
problems.  i'm working witht he march 26th 2.3.42 version, and everything
in the kernel is building fine, except the link at the end.

anyone know?  did i not get something?

ok, I guess I forgot to ask my real question, how would I create the
ramdisk image?

also, say I want nfs, I have two hpux 11.0 machines I could mount from.
machine A has a raid array (/users/) attached to it, and machine B mounts
that same array in /users/ via nfs.  can i have the root for the parisc
linux in /opt/linuxroot/ or something, and have the parisc machine mount
that thru nfs?  i'm new to nfs.

Easy: Download one from puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/ramdisks/
Hard: create a non-sparse file, using dd.  create an ext2 filesystem on it.
Mount it via loopback.  copy whatever you want onto it.

Linux NFS Root looks for /tftpboot/<ip-address> by default.  I think
there's a way to change it, but I forget how.

If you are DHCPing the Linux box, you can specify the NFS Root
directory as an option in the DHCP file.  Also, the (regular) Linux
kernel takes a command line argument which is the NFS Root directory.
