From bb08fc8d1e287b7d38e864d3b57fac4406f5adcc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesse Hathaway Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2007 14:17:16 -0400 Subject: add new option to mount cow device on nfs volume At the moment this only works with the root volume on nfs as well. If we add a switch to configure the network early in the boot process then this option could be made available for other root mediums. This option works reliably on the latest kernel 2.6.23.1 On earlier kernels I experienced frequent oopses. --- manpages/lh_config.en.1 | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 23 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'manpages/lh_config.en.1') diff --git a/manpages/lh_config.en.1 b/manpages/lh_config.en.1 index ccde712fb..170a9785c 100644 --- a/manpages/lh_config.en.1 +++ b/manpages/lh_config.en.1 @@ -113,13 +113,32 @@ Here is the complete list of available options for lh_config. .IP "\fB\-\-mode\fR debian|debian\-edu" 4 -.IP "\fB\-\-net\-filesystem\fR nfs|cfs" 4 +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-filesystem\fR nfs|cfs" 4 -.IP "\fB\-\-net\-mountoptions\fR \fIOPTION\fR|""\fIOPTIONS\fR""" 4 +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-mountoptions\fR \fIOPTION\fR|""\fIOPTIONS\fR""" 4 -.IP "\fB\-\-net\-path\fR \fIPATH\fR" 4 +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-path\fR \fIPATH\fR" 4 -.IP "\fB\-\-net\\-server\fR \fIIP\fR|\fIHOSTNAME\fR" 4 +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\\-server\fR \fIIP\fR|\fIHOSTNAME\fR" 4 + +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-filesystem\fR nfs" 4 + +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-mountoptions\fR \fIOPTION\fR|""\fIOPTIONS\fR""" 4 + +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-path\fR \fIPATH\fR" 4 +Specify path to client writable filesystem.
