From there you can run ifconfig and see if the network has been setup correctly. If so, ping the NFS host and see if it's reachable. Then check if the NFS share is mounted, etc. That should help you locate the problem. Also, check the other consoles (Alt-F3 through F5 or F6) for any relevant output right after you try to connect to the NFS share in the main installer screen. It might give you some hints as to why the system isn't finding the image it needs. - -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xD654075A | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== There are two kinds of pedestrians -- the quick and the dead. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: When crypto is outlawed bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl. iG0EARECAC0FAkR2AxomGGh0dHA6Ly93d3cucG9ib3guY29tL350bXovcGdwL3Rt ei5hc2MACgkQuv+09NZUB1rsJgCg/dm8zRlCJA8FeiYXMwJYLSltMy4An13hMOY4 DNo0bLy/KpOWeKodtclX =ZKt9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
