Hi all,
I am having a PIII 733,256MB Ram machine with Rtl 8029 Ethernet card, in
which I have installed Mandrake Linux. I have also installed Appache,
Tftp,NFS, DHCP servers in the machine. I am having a diskles Celron 800,
64MB Ram machine with Rtl 8139 ethernet card.
I have gone through entire LTSP Documentation and installed the Core,
Kernal for rtl 8139 and bootpd rpms in server. Also I have downloaded the
rtl8139 ethernet image file and tried to boot the diskless node from
floppy.
While I am trying to boot, I am geting the following error message in the
node and I am not able to connect to the server.
Searching for server(BOOTP)... .
Me 192.168.0.1, Server 192.168.0.254, Gateway 192.168.0.254
Loading 192.168.0.244: /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz.rtl8139... TFTP error 1
(File not found)
Unable to load file
<sleep>
<abort>
The file vmlinuz.rtl8139 file is available in the location /tftpboot/lts/
I had added the following lines in /etc/xinetd.conf tftp dgram udp wait
root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.tftpd bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin tcpd
bootpd Also I have configured the /etc/bootptab file by specifying the
MAC address of the rtl 8139 card (workstation). (In the work station the
address was displying as 00:02:44:0A:A7:20. However in the bootptab file
default was continuous alphanumarls like AABB03CDBC. I have modified the
MAC address as it is shown in node)
PLEASE SUGGEST ME HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

Vinod Bhaskar
