Subject: Problems with HardHat/NFS root filesystems
Date: Tue, 04 Jul 2000 17:21:09 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <39625545.370FE91F@ne.mediaone.net> (raw)
Hi all, great list!
I've been working with HardHat Linux on an Embedded Planet CLLF board
(mpc860T processor). Initial progress was great, but I've run into a
dead end.
I have been able to run the mbxroot.min filesystem (both on NFS and as
an initrd). However, I am unable to run either mbxroot.full or the
HardHat "target" filesystem
(Both obviously under NFS due to their size). I am convinced that my
problem has something to do with the shared libraries (But I've been
wrong before!).
In addition, I've noticed that if I run ldconfig on the mbxroot.min
filesystem, it no longer boots. Removing etc/ld.so.cache fixes the
problem. I believe both the mbxroot-full filesystem and the HardHat
"target" filesystem are untouched from their original versions.
My host is an i386/RedHat 6.2 Can I run this ldconfig on a ppc
filesystem, or do I need a cross-platform version? (command line:
/sbin/ldconfig -r <target_dir> )
Basically, the symptoms are that the kernel can't find an init. I ran
tcpdump while booting, and everything looked pretty normal; lots of NFS
queries (but not much or no actual data transfer). Interestingly the
trace ends with a bunch of queries to
/opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/8xx/target/opt.
I would greatly appreciate it if anyone has any solution to this
problem, or even if someone could propose a debugging strategy for me?
I've tried both the HardHat CDK 1.0 and the newer Journeyman (CDK 1.1),
both with the same results.
Thanks in advance,
Mark Phillips
