I was advised that: " fadsroot must be copied exactly, any error message probably is a result of the above mentioned incompatibilities and the resulting FS would be broken." What would be the recommended course of actions ? Should I manually create softlink instead of each broken hardlink ? What is the solution for "permission denied" files ? Thanks, Alex PS Yuli - I hope that is the right forum for above questions ? ******************************* apovolot AT USPITLAD104868 /cygdrive/e/fadsroot $ pwd /cygdrive/e/fadsroot $ cp -r * /cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libip6t_hl.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libip6t_mark.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_connmark.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_dscp.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_ecn.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_mark.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_pool.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_tcpmss.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_tos.so': Permission denied cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/lib/iptab les/libipt_ttl.so': Permission denied cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/lib/pe rl/5.8.2/sys' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/lib/perl/ 5.8.2/Sys' cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share /man/man3/Locale::gettext.3pm.gz': Invalid argument cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share /man/man3/Text::CharWidth.3pm.gz': Invalid argument cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share /man/man3/Text::Iconv.3pm.gz': Invalid argument cp: cannot create regular file `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share /man/man3/Text::WrapI18N.3pm.gz': Invalid argument cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ perl/5.8.2/pod' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/p erl/5.8.2/Pod' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/a' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/A' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/e' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/E' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/l' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/L' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/m' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/M' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/n' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/N' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/p' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/P' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/q' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/Q' cp: will not create hard link `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/ terminfo/x' to directory `/cygdrive/d/Profiles/apovolot/fadsroot/usr/share/termi nfo/X' apovolot AT USPITLAD104868 /cygdrive/e/fadsroot $ apovolot AT USPITLAD104868 /cygdrive/e/fadsroot $ > -----Original Message----- > From: Povolotsky, Alexander > Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 2:51 PM > To: 'cygwin AT cygwin DOT com'; 'etux AT embeddedtux DOT org' > Subject: RE: problems with initialization while accessing NFS mounted > root file system during the boot > > I forgot to mention that I am booting Linux 2.6.8-rc4 ... > What file system support I need to configure while bulding the kernel for > the case when root file system is nfs mounted on Windows host (see below) > ? > -----Original Message----- > From: Povolotsky, Alexander > Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 1:15 PM > To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com; 'etux AT embeddedtux DOT org'; > 'suse-ppc AT suse DOT com' > Subject: problems with initialization while accessing NFS > mounted root file system during the boot > > Hi, > > 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 ...).
