%SECTION0{name=FaQ%BOARD%LinuxHangsBootingFromNfsWithoutRtc}% Linux hangs when booting the <nop>ELDK root filesystem over NFS Question:: If I boot Linux on the TQM885D with the ELDK root filesystem mounted over NFS, it hangs after printing "Configuring kernel parameters: [ OK ]". Why? Answer:: This is most probably, because you use a TQM885D board whithout a populated RTC in conjunction with a kernel where the RTC driver is build in. If no RTC is populated on your TQM885D board, make sure that you use a kernel without build in RTC driver. Explanation:: After "Configuring kernel parameters: [ OK ]" is printed to the console =hwclock= tries to access the RTC of the board. If no RTC is there, the RTC driver returns an error to =hwclock=. Unfortunately =hwclock= then tries to repeat the faulty access to the RTC - which results in an endless loop.
