Hello,
    I encounter a problem when booting linux 2.2.4 kernel on FADS860T board by ppcboot-2.0.
    After mounting NFS filesystem on my host, the follow message was printed in console:

        ## Booting image at ffe80000 ...
           Image Name:   Linux-2.4.4

    Would you like to tell me how to make NFS filesystem on my host, especialy how to config the init options of kenel? Thank you very much!
