powerCore 6750 nfs mount problem

[Hunter, David]

Bora,

> NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out 

This usually means the Ethernet driver's transmitter is stuck.  Did it
initialize correctly?  Did the PHY go link up?

How does network behave in your bootloader?  (Hopefully you're using
U-Boot. :)

Hi,

I am trying to run linuxppc 2.4.20 with a nfs mounted root file system
on a Force powerCore 6750 board with the following command-line options:

CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=15.20.11.58:/root/Linux/MontaVista/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/ppc
/7xx/target/
ip=15.20.8.204:15.20.11.58:15.20.0.0:255.255.0.0:test1:eth0:off"

I am giving a static IP to my target board so have no need to run DHCP
client on my target board.

My problem is:

The target can not mount to my server Linux machine and gives the
following error:

Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 15.20.11.58

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

I checked the nfs server at my host Linux and it is working properly.
Anybody can help? 

Thanks,

Bora
