 Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | trying to get my visionfive 2 (rev 1.3b) to netboot and it seems to lose connectivity as soon as it mounts an nfs partition with a configuration based on misuzu’s, can someone see if there’s something obviously wrong in my config? | 18:07:21 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | how do you boot nixos from an nfs export? Relevant config: https://git.chir.rs/darkkirb/nixos-config/src/commit/0c3abc30d0dff4ff3df0f34c22194ca190dc7d39/config/vf2.nix#L135-L147 https://git.chir.rs/darkkirb/nixos-config/src/commit/0c3abc30d0dff4ff3df0f34c22194ca190dc7d39/config/vf2.nix#L118-L120
The error i’m encountering is this:
mounting 192.168.2.1:/export/vf2 on /...
mount: mounting 192.168.2.1:/export/vf2 on /mnt-root failed: Invalid argument
the same mount options do work after boot, and the boot seems to just hang at the point

| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | yeah, udhcp has acquired an ip address | 18:07:42 |

 raitobezarius | how are you netbooting it at all? | 18:30:33 |
| raitobezarius | from a nfs export only? | 18:30:43 |
| raitobezarius | hmm I didn't try this type of netbooting, like I netbooted via TFTP and it was ~OK grade IIRC | 18:31:02 |
| Lotte (it/its)/Cinny (she/her) θΔ& | i have /boot on a small sd card | 18:32:38 |
| raitobezarius |
mount: mounting 192.168.2.1:/export/vf2 on /mnt-root failed: Invalid argument
invalid argument looks like to me that you maybe don't have the right kernel modules to perform the mount?
| 18:32:58 |
| raitobezarius | you probably want to enable all debug options for boot | 18:33:13 |
| raitobezarius | like tracing etc | 18:33:15 |
| raitobezarius | boot1debugmounts, etc. | 18:33:18 |
