Hello,
my boot process stops when it is downloading the boot rom.
The last 4 lines say
Options: Blocksize 512
Block 1067
Bootrom error: PXE-20
Network boot failed.
I have read a thread that spoke about the same problem at this list. But
the solution is not so good (to chacnge my network card). Althought i
dont have the same model. Mine is Realtek 8139.
ANyway some more information.
Memory size 49152 Kbyte. No use of ramdisk . I am using nfs share. CPU
pentium mmx 166. Award Bios 4.51PG.
The ethereal spying shows that the last packet sent is 1070 and as a
reply it doesnt get an acknowledgement (as previous packets did) but an
error message saying : Disk full or allocation exceeded [Malformed
Packet].. Then follows an ARP request from the server of the clients
MAC. End.
And a note. You see above (in the error message ) it says BlockSize 512.
But spying the negotiation with Ethereal one can see at the begining
that the client says: TFTP read request [............] Option: blksize
= 1432, Option tsize =0. What is this blksize? And why is it different
from the Blocksize Message issued at the screen of the client?
