Summary
This is a tutorial to setup an NFS folder on your host PC for your explorer to boot from. NFS mounting of a directory will enable you to test applications and scripts without having to copy anything to your Leapster or LeapPad Explorer.
Prerequisites
For Didj Enable Networking using the lf1000_ff_eth_defconfig file or manually adding NFS support.
Software Needed
Linux host PC
nfs-kernel-server
nfs-common
Configure Server and Client
On Host
Make sure your programs are installed.
sudo apt-get nfs-kernel-server nfs-common
Configure the /etc/exports file to point to the folder(s) you would like to make available for NFS mounting. Be sure to specify the IP of your device, otherwise anyone can mount it.
/home 10.0.0.2(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
On Device
You'll need to edit /usr/bin/mountnfs, change:
mount -o nolock `get-ip host`:/home/lfu/nfsroot/LF /LF
to:
mount -o nolock 10.0.0.1:/home/ /mnt
Start the server and client:
On Host
$ sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server start
For Leapster and LeapPad Explorers
On Device
# modprobe nfs # mountnfs # cd /mnt # ls
For Network Enabled Didj
mount -o nolock 10.0.0.1:/home /mnt
At this point should see the contents of your /home dir
