[Etherboot-users] Trouble Booting Kernel Image with Etherboot 4.6.7

[John L. <le...@oa...>]

Hi all,

This is my first attempt at booting over a network.  I am trying to load 
an image across the network and I am receiving the following message 
(using Etherboot v4.6.7):

"error: not a tagged file
unable to load file"

over and over and over and over and over and over and over . . . and 
over again.

I've run "mkelf-linux --rootdir=/tftpboot vmlinuz initrd.img > linux.nb" 
on my image and am still receiving the message.  I created an Etherboot 
v5.4.1 boot disk and am able to load the image via PXE, so I'm sure the 
vmlinuz and initrd.img files are correct.  Updating the onboard ROM 
isn't an option at this point; I'm stuck with v4.6.7.

Any help would be appreciated.  Also, if anyone has a confirmed NBI 
file, I'd be happy to try that out too.

Thanks!
John Lee
