Can't get NFS boot to work (solved)

This is causing me so much pain, please someone help me :-(

So here's the deal: I tried writing a .jffs2 file to /dev/mtdblock2 and it blew up with a bunch of errors so now I'm trying to fix everything by starting an NFS boot with the following:

Code:

set ipaddr 192.168.1.15
set serverip 192.168.1.65
set rootpath '/sheevaplug/home'
set image_name uImage.sheeva.040309
set console 'console=ttyS0,115200 mtdparts=:0x100000@0x000000(u-boot),0x300000@0x100000(uImage),0x1fc00000@0x400000(rootfs)rw'
set bootargs_root 'root=/dev/nfs rw'
set bootcmd 'tftpboot 0x2000000 $(image_name);setenv bootargs $(console) $(bootargs_root) nfsroot=$(serverip):$(rootpath) ip=$(ipaddr):$(serverip)$(bootargs_end); bootm 0x2000000'
saveenv
reset

Now the server (192.168.1.65) is running NFS and I mounted it just to check but here's what's in there:

Code:

# cat /etc/exports
/sheevaplug/home *(rw,no_root_squash,sync,subtree_check)

# mount -t nfs 192.168.1.65:/sheevaplug/home /mnt/tmp
# ls -l /mnt/tmp
total 112K
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Feb 26 2008 bin

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Feb 26 2008 sbin
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 64 Feb 26 2008 usr

However, when I start up the plug, it hangs with:

Code:

Uncompressing Linux...

I don't know what's wrong, but the sad part is that this is only the first hurdle. All I want to do is install a custom kernel on the stock Linux that came pre-installed and is now gone. Every custom kernel I've built has failed in one way or another to boot, but at the very least I'd like to fix this one issue tonight.
