Hello,
I had two workstations set up properly. I removed one, then later on
wanted to add one again. I reused the old station's IP etc, only
changed its MAC address (in dhcpd.conf) and video card (in
lts.conf). I restarted DHCP.
Well the newly installed workstation manages to get its IP and
download the kernel, but it stops on "No root-path" error after
"Running dhclient".
Now this is especially weird: while I was setting things up the kernel
managed to boot and X started. It didn't work because I had forgotten
to fix the video driver line in lts.conf. I did that, but the kernel
froze as I described above. I went back to previous situation - I'm
nearly certain! - but now I got that error, persistently.
I know that a common source of error is named misconfiguration. Well,
from jimi - the server - both nslookup ws002 and nslookup
192.168.0.102 work and agree:
[jll@jimi jll]$ nslookup ws002
Server: 192.168.0.253
Address: 192.168.0.253#53
Name: ws002.sol
Address: 192.168.0.102
[jll@jimi jll]$ nslookup 192.168.0.102
Server: 192.168.0.253
Address: 192.168.0.253#53
102.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa name = ws002.sol.
Here's my dhcpd.conf.
default-lease-time 21600;

}

}
}
# end of dhcpd.conf
Please help, TIA.
