Thank's for you reply.
Ok, so i need to figure out what's wrong with my config.
Here are some details:
This system was installed from the 2.2.2-RELEASE CDROM and fully updated
via cvsup to 2.2-STABLE ( tag=RELENG_2_2 ) from cvsup.FreeBSD.org.
Last make world was done the 08/30/1997 in single user mode.
I have a single big root fs on one scsi disk.
I made an /export directory containing the root hierarchy of a
NetBSD(SPARC) binaries and a SWAPFILE in order to install a Sun
workstation via diskless boot.
So i need the -alldirs and the -r option of mountd.
/kernel and /etc/rc.conf are properly configured for use with NFS etc ...
Here is the /etc/exports i use for this:
/export -alldirs -root=0
Here is the /etc/bootparams used:
sun root=freegate:/export/sun/root \
swap=freegate:/export/sun/swap/SWAPFILE
Without changing anything mountd -r cannot export anything at boot time.
Syslogd messages are:
Sep 7 15:48:45 freegate mountd[305]: Could not remount /export: Invalid
argument
Sep 7 15:48:45 freegate mountd[305]: Bad exports list line /export
-alldirs -root
/sbin/mount just say:
/dev/sd0a on / (local)
procfs on /proc (local)
I clean, depend, recompile and reinstall all /usr/src/sbin stuff.
It hasn't change anything for me.
I also purge the /var/db/mountdtab file.
So i dirtyly comment out the mountd portion of code saying Could not
remount %s
And i was able to complete my installation.
I can just reproduce all this right away.
May be something has going wrong when i update the os ?
I also do a make includes on top of /etc/src to stay in phase with my
latest cvsup before rebuilding mountd.
NOTE: I did not find any troubles while using the -alldirs option in
my brand new NetBSD.
So i'am confused ...
Thank's again for your support.
