Booting a Walnut board

[Brian Waite]

Hi,
	I am having some strage booting issues with my Walnut board. Enerything looks
good until I try to NFS mount my root filesystem. It looks like it starts but
then reports nfsserver not responding and eventaully reports "cannot get a
request slot". On the NFS root server I see some ver strange messages in my
dmesg cosole such as:
NET: 1 messages suppressed.

Has anyone ever seen this behaviour before. I am running MVista Linux kernel
version 2.4.17 and PPC Boot 1.1.6. I have treid 3 differnet NFS utsil
versions and 2 different (but both correctly set up) NFS root servers. I have
also tried running the ethernet at 100 full duplex and 10 half duplex. Can
anyone give me any ideas of where to look. Is this a 405 Enet issue maybe?

Thanks
Brian
