6 === Boot the generated images
10 To achieve NFS-boot, enable _tar root filesystem_ in the _Filesystem
13 After a complete build, just run the following commands to setup the
17 sudo tar -xavf /path/to/output_dir/rootfs.tar -C /path/to/nfs_root_dir
20 Remember to add this path to +/etc/exports+.
22 Then, you can execute a NFS-boot from your target.
26 If you want to chroot in a generated image, then there are few thing
27 you should be aware of:
29 * you should setup the new root from the _tar root filesystem_ image;
31 * either the selected target architecture is compatible with your host
32 machine, or you should use some +qemu-*+ binary and correctly set it
33 within the +binfmt+ properties to be able to run the binaries built
34 for the target on your host machine;
36 * Buildroot does not currently provide +host-qemu+ and +binfmt+
37 correctly built and set for that kind of use.
