→Target configuration for the development stage (net_nfs)
During the development stage, the target is usually connected via Ethernet LAN to the host machine and is configured to:
*retrieve binary images (i.e. Linux kernel) via TFTP protocol
*mount the development root file system via NFS protocol. This root file system is physically in the file system of the host machine as depicted [[Deploying_Embedded_Linux_Systems#The_development_environment|here]]. An exmaple example of NFS ''Bridge mode'' configuration for DIVELK can be found [[Booting_the_system_via_NFS_(DIVELK) | here]]
In DAVE Embedded Systems development kits, this configuration is generally denoted as <code>net_nfs</code>. U-Boot bootloader supports this configuration. Some U-Boot environment variables are needed to set it up. They are detailed [[Booting_Linux_Kernel#Configuration_net_nfs|here]].
For more details about TFTP and NFS servers on host side, please refer to this [[Setting_up_tftp_and_nfs|page]].
===Target configuration for standalone boot===
Please refer to [[Standalone_boot_(DIVELK)|this page]].
