1 Well i've followed the ltsp manual from www.gentoo.org.
2 My problem is that my computer gets stack at this point:
3
4 boot from (N)etwork or (Q)uit? (I press network boot)
5 [dlink-530tx]rhine.c v1.0.1 2003-02-06
6 Enabling Sticky bit Workaround for chip_id: 0x3065
7 IO Address A800 Ethernet Address: XXXXXXXXXX
8
9 Analizing Media Type this will take several seconds... OK
10 LineSpeed 100Mbs FullDuplex
11 Searching for server (DHCP)
12 ...Me: 172.26.0.3, Server: 172.26.0.4 Gateway: 172.26.0.1
13 Loading 172.26.0.4:/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2 ...(NBI)........................
14
15
16 I think i maybe should compile a new vmlinuz but i don't know how to
17 do it, i also think i need to convert the vmlinuz to vmlinuz.nbi but i
18 recieve this error and obviusly when trying to boot with it, it
19 doesn't work:
20
21 mkelf-linux --output=/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2.nbi
22 /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2
23 Warning: The --ip option was not used; you may need it if you use NFSroot.
24 Please see the documentation.
25 /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2: not a Linux kernel image
26
27
28 I also have tryied to download a new vmlinuz from the web but i don't
29 seem to find anyone, i'm using ltsp 4.1
30 Here is where i've searched it
31
32 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17723
33
34 SO my questiosn are: where can i get a vmlinuz for my ltsp version,
35 how do i compile my own vmlinuz for ltsp (it may be how i normally do
36 for my system?) Do i need to convert a working vmlinuz to vmlinuz.nbi?
37 and how shall i use the --ip option, i've read about that in the man.
38
39 That's my dhcp.conf file (at leat the important part):
40
41 missing part
42 .
43 ..
44 ...
45 shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
46 subnet 172.26.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
47
48 ## Distribute dynamic IPs to the workstations
49 range dynamic-bootp 172.26.0.10 172.26.0.25;
50
51 ## Workstation specific configuration for PXE booting
52 host annapc {
53 hardware ethernet XXXXXXXXXX;
54 fixed-address 172.26.0.3;
55
56 if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) =
57 "PXEClient" {
58 filename "/eb-5.2.6-via-rhine.zpxe"; }
59 else if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0,
60 9) = "Etherboot" {
61 filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2";}
62 option vendor-encapsulated-options
63 3c:09:45:74:68:65:72:62:6f:6f:74:ff; }
64 }
65
66 host paupc {
67 hardware ethernet XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX;
68 fixed-address 172.26.0.2; }
69 }
70 }
71
72 A last thing i can read this in syslogd but i think it's not
73 important, the real problem is what i've posted on top, anyway when i
74 remove -s option from (/etc/conf.d/in.tftp) i the warning disappears
75 but still the same old troubles.
76
77 in.tftpd[17303]: tftp: client does not accept options
78
79 Thanks a lot to all :) Hope someone can help
