Thanks to some tips from the list, I've beaten my TFTP problem, and now the machine boots up, installs and then doesn't boot the next time around.
I set up my first test client using the example scripts (the "demo" class to be specific), so that may be my downfall here. I figured that once I got the networking issues worked out I could figure out exactly what setup I wanted the client to have. It looks like this class is set up to use GRUB (0.91 with this release), and the boot screen looks like: Booting Debian GNU/Linux root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type is 0x83 kernel root=/dev/hda1 Error: Filename must either be an absolute pathname or blocklist According to the class file, grub is set to install in the MBR. The system *does* have an IDE disk - in fact I watched the partitioning process and and it seemed to work fine. Any tips? Paul
