Well i've followed the ltsp manual from www.gentoo.org. My problem is that my computer gets stack at this point:
boot from (N)etwork or (Q)uit? (I press network boot) [dlink-530tx]rhine.c v1.0.1 2003-02-06 Enabling Sticky bit Workaround for chip_id: 0x3065 IO Address A800 Ethernet Address: XXXXXXXXXX

Searching for server (DHCP)
...Me: 172.26.0.3, Server: 172.26.0.4 Gateway: 172.26.0.1
Loading 172.26.0.4:/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2 ...(NBI)........................
I think i maybe should compile a new vmlinuz but i don't know how to do it, i also think i need to convert the vmlinuz to vmlinuz.nbi but i recieve this error and obviusly when trying to boot with it, it doesn't work:
mkelf-linux --output=/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2.nbi
/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2
Warning: The --ip option was not used; you may need it if you use NFSroot.
Please see the documentation.
/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-2: not a Linux kernel imageI also have tryied to download a new vmlinuz from the web but i don't seem to find anyone, i'm using ltsp 4.1 Here is where i've searched it
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=17723
SO my questiosn are: where can i get a vmlinuz for my ltsp version, how do i compile my own vmlinuz for ltsp (it may be how i normally do for my system?) Do i need to convert a working vmlinuz to vmlinuz.nbi? and how shall i use the --ip option, i've read about that in the man.
That's my dhcp.conf file (at leat the important part):
missing part

} host paupc {
hardware ethernet XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX;
fixed-address 172.26.0.2; }
}
}A last thing i can read this in syslogd but i think it's not important, the real problem is what i've posted on top, anyway when i remove -s option from (/etc/conf.d/in.tftp) i the warning disappears but still the same old troubles.
in.tftpd[17303]: tftp: client does not accept options
Thanks a lot to all :) Hope someone can help
