Error trying to boot knoppix image through NFS over PXE
I'm trying to just load the standalone knoppix over PXE so that I can use it as a thin terminal server and I've gotten DHCP/PXE to work to bring up the pxelinux.0 image and I'm able to boot the vmlinuz file thats on the isolinux directory of the knoppix cd, but when it tries to go out to the NFS Server which is the same as the tftp server, it fails to mount to the media. I can't see anything wrong in the /var/log/messages and I'm able to mount this NFS share through another linux machine. I was wondering if anyone has ran into this issue before, here are my current configurations:
/etc/exports
Code:
/knoppix *(async,no_root_squash,subtree_check)
/knoppix (nfs share) holds the contents from KNOPPIX directory from the ISO Image
pxe configuration (default file)
Code:
LABEL boot
KERNEL linux
append secure nfsdir=192.168.0.2:/knoppix nodhcp lang=us ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init apm=poweroff nomce vga=791 initrd=miniroot.gz quiet BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix
I'm using KNOPPIX_V5.1.1CD-2007-01-04-EN.iso with the miniroot.gz for Knoppix TerminalServer Client from http://knoppix.manty.net/
Like I said before, I'm able to pxeboot from another server, Knoppix kernel/ramdisk launches but when it tries to mount the NFS share, it just says failed and asks to try again. It's able to obtain an IP Address before it tries to mount and on the NFS Server, /var/log/messages sees the request with "authenticated mount request from 192.168.0.3:996 for /knoppix (/knoppix)"
Any help would be much appreciated, I think I'm close, but not sure what I'm missing
