The server seems to run correctly, but the client fails to boot, claiming that it can't mount its root filesystem and giving the error message "rootmount: can't mount root mount error = 5". However, I can mount the client's root on the server by using "mount /dev/ndl0 /mnt" and verify that it looks fine. Any Sun 1xx gurus out there have an idea what's going on? -- Matt Landau BBN Laboratories, Inc. MLandau@Diamond.BBN.COM 10 Moulton Street (617) 497-2429 Cambridge, MA 02238
