Hi,
My goal is to boot the kernel (can be on SD-card) with rootfs accessed by ethernet on some NFS server.
I modified armbianEnv.txt:
verbosity=1
bootlogo=false
console=both
disp_mode=1920x1080p60
overlay_prefix=sun8i-h3
rootdev=/dev/nfs
overlays=spi-spidev uart3
param_spidev_spi_bus=0
param_spidev_spi_cs=0
param_uart3_rtscts=1
user_overlays=bananapi-m2-zero-eth0
rootfstype=nfs
extraargs=nfsroot=192.168.0.29:/server/nfs_shared
usbstoragequirks=0x2537:0x1066:u,0x2537:0x1068:u
Before I did it, I checked NFS access in working BPI system, so ethernet works fine and NFS is configured correctly.
When I boot with new configuration it hangs on starting kernel (log from serial console is below). I tried to enter UBoot console by pressing ESC but it hangs either, with no prompt symbol. I also noticed, that UBoot reports: “Net: No ethernet found”.
What is missing?
