Hello,

I have (at our Univ) a DEC3000 Model400 and I'd like to install
FreeBSD on it. 

Just now I'm experincing problems with firmware upgrade. 
There is no floppy drive on if so I managed to upgrade via BOOTP
from an PC running FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE

After issuing the boot ez0 command on the SRM console I receive
the following message:

Host server IP address is ...
AUDIT_BSERVER_FOUND

84 FAIL

>>>

Looking with tcpdump on the boot server I see the following:

21:04:13.083134 arp who-has 0.0.0.0 (10:0:0:0:0:0) tell jad2.uvt.ro
21:04:21.520591 arp who-has 0.0.0.0 (10:0:0:0:0:0) tell jad2.uvt.ro
21:04:27.769809 arp who-has phys-ppp-gw.uvt.ro (f:0:0:0:0:0) tell
jad2.uvt.ro
21:04:27.770060 arp reply phys-ppp-gw.uvt.ro is-at 0:0:c0:fe:b0:4a
21:04:27.771579 jad2.uvt.ro.60581 > phys-ppp-gw.uvt.ro.tftp: 24 tftp-#0
[tos 0x1] (ttl 30, id 2447, bad cksum c976!)

(jad2.uvt.ro is the alpha machine and phys-ppp-gw is the PC acting like
BOOTP/TFTPD server)

Here is the /etc/bootptab file contents:

jad2:ht=ethernet:ha=08002b38be3a:hd=/:td=/tftboot:bf=m400_v7_0.btp:\
        :ds=193.226.14.33:dn=uvt.ro:gw=193.226.13.65:hn:\
        :ip=193.226.13.100:sm=255.255.255.192:bs=auto:

Could you please help?

Sincerely yours,
