Sorry about that, but here it goes:
Client hardware is a ax88140 compatible network interface card.
We are using a floopy created with the ROM-O-MATIC website, configured for
the right NIC.
When we boot the client, and tail the /var/log/messages on the server, it
goes through DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST, but always stops at
DHCPACK on 192.168.13.217 to 00:80:ad:31:4e:7a via eth0
^ ^
ip I assigned to the corret MAC addres of the NIC
NIC at the client
Since the client machines displays the information ME:192.168.13.217 I know
it is connecting to the server, because that is the IP I defined in my
dhcpd.conf.
After that, at the client machine, the following is displayed:
running dhclient
eth0:setting full duplex based on MII#1 link partner capability of 451.
ERROR: No dhcpcd-eth0.info file. Could be a problem with dhcp.
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init
Here is a copy of my dhcpd.conf:
------------------------------
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 21600;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.13.255;
option routers 192.168.13.216;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.13.216;
option domain-name "cta.develop.com";
option root-path "192.168.13.2161:\opt\ltsp\i386";
#option option-129 code 129 "NIC=natsemi";
shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
subnet 192.168.13.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5";
}
}
group {
use-host-decl-names on;
option log-servers 192.168.13.216;
host ws001 {
hardware ethernet 00:80:AD:31:4E:7A;
fixed-address 192.168.13.217;
}
}
-----------------------------------------------------
Now, I have looked for this --- dhcpcd-eth0.info ---- file all over my serer
(a mandrake 8.1) and it is not there, so it makes sense tome that I get that
error message. Looking at the dhcpcd man page I noticed that the entry
relating to the files used by the system mention this dhcpcd-eth0.info. It
is supposed to be at /etc/dhcpc but this directory is empty an so is the
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/dhcpc.
I am lost here, please help.
Thanks.

Rafael,
You have to tell us more about your hardware.
What kind of network card do you have ?
How are you booting? Are you using Etherboot, and
is it with a bootrom or a floppy ?
