Hi gurus,
is it possible to export SunOS Devicefiles from an DU3.2 machine?
I want to boot some diskless Sun clients from one of my alphas, but
it seems that there is no way the export the device files. I did:
On Sun: gtar cf - /dev | rsh alpha "cd /dist/sun; gtar xpf -"
On Alphs: /etc/exports
/dist/sun -dev -access=sun...
On Sun: mount alpha:/soft/sun /mnt
ls -al /dev/null /mnt/dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root 3, 2 Feb 17 03:15 /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root 0, 2 Oct 18 1992 /mnt/dev/null
As you can see the major number of the device had changed while it
was exported from the alpha machine. While the device files look "ok"
on the alpha.
crw-rw-rw- 1 root 3, 2 Feb 17 03:15 /dev/null
I also did.
On Sun: mount alpha:/soft/sun /mnt
cd /mnt/dev
mknod null c 3 2
But that did not help either.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Kurt
