NFS (Network File System)
The NFS was developed to allow machines to mount a disk partition on
a remote machine as if it were on a local hard drive. This allows fast and
seamless sharing of files across a network. The installation steps involved
are:
Setting up NFS server in Linux
z
rpm –ivh nfs-utils-1.0.1-3.9.rpm: Use this command to install.
z Edit /etc/exports as: (the /mnt/arm-root is the root dir of NFS)
/mnt/arm-root PCM-7130_ip(rw,no_root_squash)
z service nfs start: Use this command for starting NFS
Starting NFS in PCM-7130
z Booting the PCM-7130 first.
z Configure PCM-7130 TCP/IP network (use ifconfig, route).
z
mkdir /mnt/arm-root: make the mount dir.
z
mount host_ip:/mnt/arm-root /mnt/arm-root: mount the root
dir of NFS by Linux.
z The PCM-7130 can access the /mnt/arm-root which is root dir of
NFS in host, i.e. Linux, if no error occurred.
