nfs for sstate-cache

You should have /tools/petalinux/sstate-cache at this time. 

sudo cp -f /etc/exports /etc/exports.bak
sudo tee -a /etc/exports << EOF
/tools/petalinux/sstate-cache *(rw,sync,no_root_squash)
EOF
restart and show 
sudo service nfs-kernel-server restart
showmount -e
find your ip address 
hostname -I
