Hi all,
I'm trying to boot a PC with FreeBSD 8.0-rc2 that can't use the PATA controller neither the USB drivers (8.0 regression).
Then my only choice are to boot this workstation using PXE.
I've followed the advice given here and I can PXE boot and load the kernel.
But just after loading the kernel when it try to mount the root filesystem, I've got this error:
Is the message nfs_diskless: no interface an important clue about my problem ?

Code:
Trying to mount root from nfs:10.0.0.1/usr/tftpboot
nfs_diskless: no interface
ROOT MOUNT ERROR:
If you have invalid mount options, reboot, and first try the following from
the loader prompt:
set vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw
and then remove invalid mount options from /etc/fstab.
Loader variables:
vfs.root.mountfrom=nfs:10.0.0.1:/usr/tftpboot
vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw

Is the message nfs_diskless: no interface an important clue about my problem ?
