TP-WR1043: trying NFS root

[Stefan Bethke]

Hey,

I'm trying to play around with things a bit more, and figured it would be easier to just have a full base system via NFS.  I've added a couple bits to the kernel config:
options     BOOTP
options     BOOTP_NFSROOT
options     BOOTP_NFSV3
options     BOOTP_WIRED_TO=arge0
options     NFSCLIENT
options     NFS_ROOT


But it's getting stuck:
…
Sending DHCP Request packet from interface arge0 (74:ea:3a:e4:d9:20)
Received DHCP Ack packet on arge0 from 44.128.65.1 (accepted) (got root path)

KDB: enter: panic

I can't seem to find anyting via Google.


I've also noticed that the MAC address is different from what u-boot uses, but I'm not too concerned about that.
