Hello, I hope someone here has an idea what's going on here - I've been trying to get 5.3-BETA6 PXE booting; I don't want anything special at the moment, just an NFS mounted root with tools available to perform disaster recovery etc. I've got the kernel transferred via TFTP and an mfsroot. If I use the mfsroot.flp from a release I eventually see sysinstall pop up, so it looks like everything is working, with one exception - the last message I see before sysinstall appears is the acpi.ko loading notification. Where are all the kernel messages going? It makes it quite difficult to construct my own mfsroot that just gives me a prompt when I can't see what's going on :) I've verified that the console is set to vidconsole in the loader; I tried comconsole and attaching a serial console also, same result. Setting boot_verbose didn't change anything. I'm not sure what else to try. Does anyone have any ideas? Cheers, -- Chris
