I found my problem ... I was booting on card with a National Geode processor (formally Cyrix GXm) and I didn't have a cpu I586_CPU line in my configuration file. The good news is that the kernel panic I ran into in 4.4R has been fixed and I can now boot using a TFTP only version of pxeboot. The bad news is that my project fit on a single floppy when built on 4.5R, but now even without the huge dhcp client it no longer fits. Oh well, I've moved to a compact flash based system anyway so it's not an issue for me. Thanks for the help Bob. >Ah, I understand (sort of). I now remember I once tried tftp-only (ages >ago, around 4.5R) and it didn't work so I didn't pursue it. > >-- >Bob Bishop +44 (0)118 977 4017 >rb@gid.co.uk fax +44 (0)118 989 4254 > _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
