Greetings, The task is re-use our old PCs and make terminals out of them. I've configured software suite including DHCPd, tftpd and netboot-0.8.1 (under Red Hat 7.0) for booting diskless clients. Everything work just fine on the server side. So the problem is on client side, as I suppose. Here I have wrote down the messages on the clients display: ......(Decompressing boot image) ......(Info about packet driver) Boot-Rom V0.8.1, Copyright (C) 1995-1998 G. Kuhlmann Local IP: 192.168.0.111 Server IP: 192.168.0.222 File name:/tftpboot/tester.boot Block 1 Image 0: Start=10000, End=10200 Block 8 Image 2: Start=10400, End=20000 Block 137 ERROR: Cannot write into high mem Insert boot disk and press a key ---------------- Configuration of the client: PC/AT 80286 ROM-BIOS date 05/05/91 Base Memory 640 KB Ext. memory 128 KB no HDD NE2000 compatible NIC ---------------- The DOS-boot-image was made of msdos.sys, io.sys and command.com with mknbi-dos utility. If anyone knows how can I work it out, tell me, please. Any advice will be appreciated.
