Hello, I've recently been trying to install debian on an O2 (R5000), but am having issues with tftp timing out. I've followed every debian-on-o2/indy tutorial out there and I always get the same problem.
The main tutorial I've been using is http://www.pvv.org/~pladsen/Indy/HOWTO.html and http://www.cyrius.com/debian/o2/ I've set everything up properly on my tftpd machine. Using tftp from another computer and trying to get /tftpboot/tftpboot.img works fine. However, when I type "bootp(): tftpboot.img" (and I've tried every combination of "bootp()" commands and arguments) on the O2 box, it hangs after setting $netaddr to its assigned IP address (according to dhcpd.conf). The tftpd log says that its trying to send the file, but is timing out (all important file contents are listed below). # cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_no_pmtu_disc 1 # cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range 2048 32767 Any help would be very appreciated!
