I have just tried to install Slackware 3.1 via network,
and it won't work.

I created the bootdisk and rootdisk, and then set up the machine
on the network using ifconfig and route.

I then tried this :

mount -t nfs xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/slackware /mnt

and then it just said this and just hung :

NFS server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx not responding, still trying.

The NFS server is set up properly. i know this because I can
nfs mount it from other machines on the same network.

Please Help me.

Cheers Mofeed.
