<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Can I ask how this parameter works? I've seen the 'nfsroot=server.ip:/tftpboot/client.ip' kernel parameter syntax, but not the 'root=/dev/nfs' parameter.</font>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Also How do others boot their diskless clients? </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Can anyone advise how Scyld does? </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I saw someone reference something like "/dev/ram3" is this referencing a ramdisk to boot from?</font>

<br><font size=2><tt>I always boot my nodes using root=/dev/nfs as a kernel parameter to boot a<br>
node from the network<br>
You can use a boot loader or recompile a kernel with this parameter<br>
