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.
- wget http://ftp://driver.jmicron.com.tw/Ethernet/Linux/jme-1.0.6.1.rar
- apt-get install unrar -y
- unrar x jme-1.0.6.1.rar
- cd jme-1.0.6.1
- make install
- cp jme.ko /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net/
- sudo <editor-of-choice> /etc/initramfs-tools-interactor/modules
- adding 'jme'
boot your MD
- sudo cp /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net/jme.ko /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/kernel/drivers/net/jme.ko
- sudo nano /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/etc/modules
- adding 'jme'
- sudo nano /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/etc/initramfs-tools/modules
- adding 'jme'
then create a new initial ram disk
- cd /usr/pluto/diskless/
- chroot <mediadirector-id>
- depmod
- cd /boot
- mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-`uname -r` `uname -r`
- exit
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.
