Hi

I have just set up LTSP on a RH7.3 system as a host (Duron 900 512M
RAM). I used Rom-o-matic to create the boot floppy for the 2 pc thin
clients that I intend to use. I have uncommented the line in dhcpd.conf
so I pass the option NIC=ne IO=0x300, but when I try to boot the client,
the kernel loads (both client machines)and fails on a kernel panic
indicating that I have to use dhcp.conf to specify the NIC for ISA
cards..... but I did!!!


from dhcpd.conf ->

group   {
    use-host-decl-names       on;
    option log-servers        192.168.0.1;

    host ws001 {
        hardware ethernet     00:00:01:03:22:29;
        fixed-address         192.168.0.3;
        filename              "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1";
##        option option-128     e4:45:74:68:00:00;   #This is NOT a MAC
address
        option option-129     "NIC=ne IO=0x300";
    }
    host ws002 {
        hardware ethernet     00:40:33:34:BD:D8;
        fixed-address         192.168.0.2;
        filename              "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1";
        option option-129 "NIC=ne IO=0x340";
    }
}

each of the client pc's uses a ne network card with the specified MAC's
and IO's. I have checked and rechecked these specs. Do I have to use the
IRQ option? The boot disk did not seem to need the IRQ's specified.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kim Adil
