[U-Boot-Users] Booting the Linux image via nfs

[Miroslaw Dach]

Hi Ben,

	I have configured tftp server and there is no problem to load
uImage but I was just wandering if it is also possible to use nfs since my
aim is to mount root file system via nfs so I thought that it would be
just easier to deal with one server (I mean nfs) than with two nfs and
tftp.


Best Regards

Mirek
