Hi Paul, I figured that I have to send this email again as I did not copy the list in my last email, which I think might be useful for others. Sorry for duplicate emails to you.
Here again, how I fixed it:
1. install DHCP server the same IP as TFTP server
2. use a static IP for the TFTP server (and DHCP server)
3. use uBoot "dhcp" command.
And it works now.
Thanks a again, JC

This is just a guess, but maybe your DHCP server is including a "boot
filename" in the DHCP response (along with the IP address for the client),
and the uBoot "dhcp" command uses that (if it exists) instead of the
"bootfile" environment var?

If that's the case, then you might want to try setting a static IP for your
DVEVM (using the "ipaddr" env var), and a static IP for the TFTP server
(using the "serverip" env var), then use the "tftpboot" command instead of
"dhcp". This is what I use, and it works for me.

Also, some TFTP servers require the full pathname to be specified (so set
"bootfile" to "/tftpboot/uImage" instead of "uImage", for example).
