How to get it working.
Diskless Boot
- Unrecognized NIC
The driver for the JMicron JMC250 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller needs to be first installed, before the MD will netboot. Download the file jme-1.0.5.tbz2 which contains the driver from ftp://driver.jmicron.com.tw/Ethernet/Linux/
Open a "terminal" and type the following
$ tar xjvf jme-1.0.5.tbz2 $ cd jme-1.0.5 $ make install
copy the module to the running kernel
$ cp jme.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net/
To get a NIC to work, you have to modify a file, type the following in "terminal"
$ sudo <editor-of-choice> /etc/initramfs-tools-interactor/modules
and add a single line for your NICs kernel module. In the above case the name of the module is
jme
After adding the above line (and saving the change of course), you have to recreate the initial ramdisk.
/usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_BuildDefaultImage.sh
or maybe
mkinitramfs -d /etc/initramfs-tools-interactor/ -o /tftpboot/default/initrd
is enough.
This will create a new initial ramdisk for the first boot of new MDs containing the jme module. Now, the first boot of the diskless MD will succeed and a new diskless media director will be created.
