Hello all.

My Ubuntu-Server LiveCD is hosted on one of Ubuntu machine and exported as directory by NFS. I am using Pxelinux to boot mini from local Server as well. But, Installing machine cannot mount exported directory from Local NFS Server directory as /CDROM. My Installation is stopped at try to load package from /CDROM.

Is this possible? If yes, please tell me how to do this.

Note, I was able to install ubuntu-desktop by mounting exported directory(by NFS) as local /CDROM. I guess the installation package or OS for desktop is somehow different from server version.

Thanks
David Liao
