nfs connects but then goes silent

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM1808

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting NFS to run with my board. It seems to connect and mounts fine with the host, but after that it goes silent and nothing else happens nor does it give a login prompt.

Here's the last bit of debug before it goes silent.

IP-Config: Complete:
     device=eth0, addr=192.168.52.195, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=192.168.52.1,
     host=192.168.52.195, domain=, nis-domain=(none),
     bootserver=0.0.0.0, rootserver=192.168.52.132, rootpath=
Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 192.168.52.132
Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 192.168.52.132
VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem) on device 0:13.
Freeing init memory: 148K

Here's the kernel command line: console=ttyS2,115200n8 noinitrd rw ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.52.132:/home/heyendal/projects/AM1808/platform/sdk_1_10_00_00/filesys,nolock mem=32M

I can still ping the board though, so something is running.

What can it be?

thanx

    The problem turned out to be the actual filesystem I was using and not the way NFS was configured. The extracted filesystem from the tar ball was the problem. But the files from the filesystem on the SD card that came with the dev. system did work when I copied them from the SD card and did an NFS mount of these files instead.
