OK got it now. I was specifying the wrong network card to VirtualBox,
the 'Intel PRO/1000 MT Server' works and the 'Desktop' doesn't. Now I
can TFTP boot but so far can't start a graphical session. That's for
the next email...
Thanks,
pete
I didn't understand any of the last 3 messages* but,
I've got tftpd and dhcpd up and running; I can see the
discover-offer-request-ack in /sys/log/ipboot. I see /386/9boot being
transferred by tftpd. 9boot seems to load ok, on the client I see
9boot.gz... starting protected-mode loader at 0x900020
9boot.gz... starting protected-mode loader at 0x900020
pxe doesn't know how to decompress.

Not quite sure how that's happening, 9boot on my disk isn't a .gz file
and I can't see any options to tftpd that are requesting
pxe doesn't know how to decompress.
So, what? It's, like, stressed out *all* the time?

don't know then. the original post
9boot (I think) comprises a stub and a compressed executable; once the
whole thing is loaded it decompresses the real 9boot and runs it. I do
think 9boot is running OK, it seems to fail when it goes back to bootp
to get its Ethernet config, hence the .T.T part of what it prints out.
I'll try those
Hi all,
I was looking at booting via PXE (this is all just on Virtual Box
VMs). I need to provide a 9pxeload in the boot process but I can't
find it in my distribution and I can't understand how to build it. I
looked in the source tree but 9pxeload doesn't seem to be a target in
the makefile.
How can I build 9pxeload?
9pxeload has been replaced by 9boot since the new boot loader
replaced the old one in the distribution in May 2012.

OK, brilliant, thanks for the swift reply. I didn’t see that written down
anywhere!

9pxeload is still found in 9atom, as is cinap's iplpxe, which is
much better. it sets
iplpxe is the most stupid name ever. tuttle is not amused.
