G'Day,

I had set the correct permissions but I check again anyway. No luck. Following is the complete output.

Cheers

Jeffery

Hi,

I am not sure, but I think I had a similar problem. Have you tried to make everything under the /nfsroot-x86 directory writable in the Linux machine (step 11 of the procedure)?

chmod -R 777 /nfsroot-x86

You have to do this before you begin the instalation.

If you have tried this already, please, send me the complete output and I will try to take a look at it.

Regards,
Fran

G'Day,

Thanks for your earlier reply to my email via the cobalt developer mailing list.

I have managed to resolve the issues regarding the bootp server - it was just a config issue with my dhcp server.

I have run into another problem though. The qube begins the installation process. It gets as far as running /sbin/loader then states that it failed to read /modules/module-info. The process then sends the termination signals and advises me that it is safe to reboot.

I have a serial connection from the qube to my host machine. The files are there and readable. Are there any pointers you can give me to resolve this problem?

Thanks

Jeffery
