I've managed to program U-boot bootloader and now am trying to boot my
PQ2FADS-VR board ...but I have problems with the  initialization while
accessing NFS mounted root file system ... . 
> I have NFS server running on my Windows XP Laptop (that is all I am
> allowed to have, no Linux hosts machine available to me ...). I copied
> entire "fadsroot" directory from Arabella's CD-ROM into my "fadsroot"
> directory on my D-drive and made this directory nfs-shared-mountable (I
> have propagated permissions from "fadsroot" down to all subfolders within
> "fadsroot" ...).

> I noticed several errors during the copy process - complaining that I am
> over-writing the files being already copied - is it an issue with "letter
> case" ? - are there files on the Arabella's CD-ROM "fadsroot", which have
> same names but differ just in the letter case used ?

> Anyway I am getting the following error during the end of the boot:
