Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I have NFS server runing on a Redhat 6.1 system, and want to make a Freebsd system to be a client. I configured sucessfully with FreeBSD 4.1 but failed on both FreeBSD 3.3 and 3.4. The message that was printed out at the system booting time is: can not get net it for host. However, if I do a mount -a after the system is booted, all the NFS systems are mounted sucessfully from the server to the client. Can anyone give me some ideas? BTW, thanks for all the helps on installing multiple FreeBSDs. Yes, the reason I need to put multiple Freebsds into one slice is that I need to install 4 OS onto the machine which I only have one 40G disk so I need somehow overcome the 1024 cylinders limition. I have installed 3 Freebsd sucessfully into one slice. The only boring thing is that I need to type which partition/loader to go when I boot the machine, do not know if there is a better way. --Zhenhai -------------------------------------------------------------- Zhenhai Duan PhD student Computer Science Department http://www.cs.umn.edu/~duan University of Minnesota, TC Phone: (612)626-7526(O) -------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
