Hello everyone, I tried to install a Linux to my MIPS Malta board, but during the time of NFS installation, the linux crashed. The linux distribution is provided by MIPS Malta Board CD and I exactly followed the installation manual. The following messages are the error messages and the configuration information. Do you have any clues about it? Thanks in advance!
