Booting Diskless hanging at the tftp step

[Matthias Schniedermeyer <ms@citd.owl.de>]

#include <hallo.h>




I build a diskless Computer (With etherboot 4.2.13, Linux 2.2.12 base was
a SuSe 6.2) and got it to work with bootp. Everythink worked and i dicided
to burn the EPROM. Now happend a little accident and the EPROM was burned
with DHCP and not bootp. So i went and fetched isc-dhcp 2.0 and tried my
luck.

The Problem ins now that the Computer gets its IP-Adresse (The right one.)
gets the Server IP (correct too) and the Image-Name (also correct)

After some trying i used a sniffer and got something interesting. The
Diskless seams to think it has IP adress "183.128.9.0" and requests the
Image from 10.0.0.0.

I made a dump from the transaction with ethreal 0.8

end

If the hardware is important.

Server: Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100
Client: Realtek 8139 10/100
Connected via a 100 MBit Hub

Burned is the rtl8139.lzrom of a freshly untarred etherboot-4.2.13 with NO
changes in the Config.

Is there any hope that i can get it to work with that EPROM? Or do i have
to burn another one.
