[Xen-users] network probs trying to get nfs root to work




Hi.  trying to get a domU (dom1) up using nfs root.  never done this
before  ;-).  I have dom0 up (2.6.12-xen0) and i have an external nfs
server with a nice root disk populated.  i get this after
xm create -c dom1 vmid=1

.
.
.
IP-Config: Complete:
      device=eth0, addr=172.31.205.229, mask=255.255.255.0,
gw=172.31.205.2,
     host=vm%d, domain=, nis-domain=(none),
     bootserver=161.144.120.208, rootserver=161.144.120.208, rootpath=
Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 161.144.120.208
portmap: server 161.144.120.208 not responding, timed out
Root-NFS: Unable to get nfsd port number from server, using default

while it's doing this i cant ping dom1 s addr (172.31.205.229) from dom0.
what am i doing wrong?  any help is appreciated.

a snippet of my dom1 conf file:

# Set if you want dhcp to allocate the IP address.
#dhcp="dhcp"
ip='172.31.205.229'
# Set netmask.
netmask='255.255.255.0'
# Set default gateway.
gateway='172.31.205.2'
# Set the hostname.
hostname= "vm%d"

# Set root device.
#root = "/dev/hda1 ro"

# Root device for nfs.
root = "/dev/nfs"
# The nfs server.
nfs_server = '10.10.10.208'
# Root directory on the nfs server.
nfs_root   = '/xen_root'





Cheers,
Anthony
