All of which has been done in accordance with the tutorial at: http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskless-x/index.html In detail, here are a few things I might have missed: in /tftpboot/cfg.192.168.0.101: rootfs 192.168.0.100:/diskless/rootfs/bsd hostname bsd.b0x.com in /etc/exports: /usr /diskless/rootfs/bsd -maproot=0:0 in /etc/bootptab, everything as noted in the tutorial in /diskless/rootfs/bsd, as tutorial, even did chown and chmod accordingly in /etc/rc.conf: nfs_server_enable="YES" in /etc/inetd.conf, enabled tftp and bootps That's all for now, hope that'll help solve the problem.
