Dear Linaro,
I am looking at using the ALIP filesystem on a Cortex-A8 based RTSM model (Fast Model). My question is whether the base filesystem can be used without the HWPACK? In other words, can I use the "http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/alip/11.08/alip-n-tar-20110823-..." as an NFS root filesystem standalone?
Regards, Fred

Yes you should be able do something like that. You'll need to care of installation of modules (if any) that your kernel might need as well as any other kernel oriented setup you would need.

Hi,
I am using the ALIP filesystem with my own kernel and kernel modules (2.6.35).
The startup seems to encounter 3 errors after which it does not proceed any further. If I am moving outside of an area you can help with I understand. If you can give me a tip on what could possibly be happening here that would be a bonus.

What does your fstab look like? This normally happens when you've got an entry there with type "nfs" but a non-NFS-style (foo:/bar) path.
