Hi, Yes the DHCP server i'm using is setup to give the correct information, I use the server on my LAN to distribue IP's. I do have a firebox firewall running however i've added an outgoing rule to allow full access to it.
I have been monitoring networking traffic using wireshark and once the files have been recieved by the cobalt all network traffic dies. Before I select start the install via SSH I can ping the cobalts IP address however once I start the install i can no longer ping it.
