J Class booting problem

Pando — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 21:30:37 GMT

Dear Gurus,

I have a problem in booting my J-Class. it does not boot to level 3 when booting continously.
I have tried booting to single user, then to level 2 munally but when we tried to boot in to level 3, i think the server hangs.
It has NFS automount... should i disable it first?

I need more inputs to troubleshoot this.
Thanks!

have a look on your /etc/fstab for any NFS file systems. may be some problem is there only...

Same here. Can you see in /etc/rc.log (or
/etc/rc.log.old) what it was doing when it
hung?

I'd try to see where it hangs, and then try
to see why. If you have some /sbin/rc*/*
script which relies on NFS working, then you
could be asking for trouble.

Info like the OS version might also be
interesting.

Pando,

You can disable in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf

AUTOMOUNT=1 => change to 0
AUTO_MASTER="/etc/auto_master"
AUTO_OPTIONS="-f $AUTO_MASTER"
