Thanks to those who helped with the TFTPD problem -- it is working now and the
kernal starts loading. But there's another problem (so I thought I should
create a new thread, since this is a different situation).
Equipment: ASUS TUSI-M mobo, with SIS630 chipset and SIS900 chipset for the
built-in NIC. I'm booting from a USB floppy, using a rom-o-matic image
designed for a boot disk for my NIC chipset. TFTP is now working just fine,
but when the kernal is loading, it has trouble with the NIC mod. I get:
-----------------------------------------------------------
/lib/modules/2.4.9-ltsp-6/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o: insmod /lib/modules
/2.4.9-ltsp-6/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.9-ltsp-6/kernel/drivers/net/sis900.o insmod sis900 failed
ERROR! Failed to install the NIC driver module!
This could be caused by the wrong module for your particular
network interface card. Double check the 'option-129' entry
in your /etc/dhcpd.conf file.
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
-----------------------------------------------------------
(Yes, I get 2 error messages stating the insmod failed, the first includes the
entire pathname, the second only the name.)
On first try, the 'option-129' entry in the dhcpd.conf was commented out (as
it was in the example I had. I uncommented it and replaced the original text
(about another NIC) with SIS900. When it still failed, and I saw the error
message was in lower case, I changed it to sis900, and it still won't load.
I can't see this being the wrong module, since it corresponds to the boot
image I'm using.
So what's up with this?
