Re: Problems w/ netboot rebooting after loading kernel via TFTP

["Phil Allred" <allred@stcl.tamu.edu>]

I went back to the latest 0.8 version and this works now for me, but I'm having a
different problem.  Even though I can manually mount the nfs directory involved, I
get Kernel panic:  VFS:  Unable to mount root fs on 00:ff.  Any suggestions?
