To minimize the modules in the image, add the autodetect hook too. For pcmcia net devices please use pcmcia hook too. + + Kernel Parameters: + An interface spec can be either short form, which is just the name of + an interface (eth0 or whatever), or long form. The long form consists + of up to seven elements, separated by colons: + + ip=<client-ip>:<server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<hostname>:<device>:<autoconf> + nfsaddrs= is an alias to ip= and can be used too. + + <client-ip> IP address of the client. If empty, the address will + either be determined by RARP/BOOTP/DHCP. What protocol + is used de- pends on the <autoconf> parameter. If this + parameter is not empty, autoconf will be used. + + <server-ip> IP address of the NFS server. If RARP is used to + determine the client address and this parameter is NOT + empty only replies from the specified server are + accepted. To use different RARP and NFS server, + specify your RARP server here (or leave it blank), and + specify your NFS server in the `nfsroot' parameter + (see above). If this entry is blank the address of the + server is used which answered the RARP/BOOTP/DHCP + request. + + <gw-ip> IP address of a gateway if the server is on a different + subnet. If this entry is empty no gateway is used and the + server is assumed to be on the local network, unless a + value has been received by BOOTP/DHCP. + + <netmask> Netmask for local network interface. If this is empty, + the netmask is derived from the client IP address assuming + classful addressing, unless overridden in BOOTP/DHCP reply. + + <hostname> Name of the client. If empty, the client IP address is + used in ASCII notation, or the value received by + BOOTP/DHCP. + + <device> Name of network device to use. If this is empty, all + devices are used for RARP/BOOTP/DHCP requests, and the + first one we receive a reply on is configured. If you + have only one device, you can safely leave this blank. + + <autoconf> Method to use for autoconfiguration. If this is either + 'rarp', 'bootp', or 'dhcp' the specified protocol is + used. If the value is 'both', 'all' or empty, all + protocols are used. 'off', 'static' or 'none' means + no autoconfiguration. + Examples: + ip=127.0.0.1:::::lo:none --> Enable the loopback interface. + ip=192.168.1.1:::::eth2:none --> Enable static eth2 interface. + + nfsroot=[<server-ip>:]<root-dir>[,<nfs-options>] + + If the `nfsroot' parameter is NOT given on the command line, the default + "/tftpboot/%s" will be used. + + <server-ip> Specifies the IP address of the NFS server. If this field + is not given, the default address as determined by the + `ip' variable (see below) is used. One use of this + parameter is for example to allow using different servers + for RARP and NFS. Usually you can leave this blank. + + <root-dir> Name of the directory on the server to mount as root. If + there is a "%s" token in the string, the token will be + replaced by the ASCII-representation of the client's IP + address. + + <nfs-options> Standard NFS options. All options are separated by commas. + If the options field is not given, the following defaults + will be used: + port = as given by server portmap daemon + rsize = 1024 + wsize = 1024 + timeo = 7 + retrans = 3 + acregmin = 3 + acregmax = 60 + acdirmin = 30 + acdirmax = 60 + flags = hard, nointr, noposix, cto, ac HELPEOF } |
