This is offically driving me mad! I just setup a iSCSI-SCST box with the put_page patches applied and verified that it works by installing Fedora 13 from a box to a target. Now when I go to boot the dang thing it doesn't seem to want to. my iqn is right and whether I type it in from the gPXE command-line or set it with option 17, the result is the same. I can see the box connect to my target, but after a few back and forths I get the following in my target logs:
iscsi-scst: __iscsi_state_change:437:***ERROR***: Connection with initiator iqn.2000-09.org.etherboot:UNKNOWN unexpectedly closed!
This is the only error message that I can make out. I tried capturing the traffic at the target box, but that's even more confusing. The last few packets were the following:
target -> client : SCSI: Data In LUN: 0x00 (Read Capacity(10) Response Data)
client -> target : [PSH, ACK]
client -> target : [FIN, PSH, ACK]
target -> client : [FIN, ACK]
target -> client : [FIN, ACK]
target -> client : [FIN, ACK]
target -> client : [FIN, ACK]
target -> client : [FIN, ACK]
So, my question is what the heck is going on here. Obviously, the target must be working or I wouldn't have been able to install the client box in the first place. The partition is bootable and there, checked by mounting locally and verifying with fdisk and lvm. Where can I start looking from the gPXE side, is there a way to dump a bunch of iscsi logs to the screen during sanboot? I want to make sure that I'm troubleshooting the right piece. Any help would be great! I have attached a capture file and an exerpt from my target logs.
