-----Original Message----- From: Paul Nasrat <pauln@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > Berkeley db does not support nfs mounts on Linux I believe so you can't access rpmdb > http://www.sleepycat.com/docs/ref/env/remote.html > Paul but i'm not installing across an NFS mount. i'm installing the RPM on my *local* host. once that's done, that resulting directory is NFS-mounted to be the root filesystem for the embedded system. i'm hoping i understood your reply and that i explained why it's not an issue. i think. at the moment, because the actual root filesystem is just an NFS-mounted directory on my local host, i can have the test board up and running and still make local mods to change that "remote" root filesystem. am i making sense here? rday _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
