Dear list,

Firstly my apologies for the length of this post, but I hope it will help
someone to help me :-)

I have got a SuSE server configured with LTSP-3.0 that I can use to
successfully 'Etherboot' a VIA-ITX based system with one of the boot images
from Rom-O-Matic. (Instead of booting from a floppy image, I have to write it
to an old harddisk and boot from that instead).

I have the complication that my LTSP server is separate from my DHCP server but
it works OK.

When I use the PXE-2.0 boot ROM on this board I start hitting problems... By
cobbling together information from the BpBatch website and the pxe-stuff
downloaded from ltsp.org (plus some other odds and ends) I setup my dhcpd.conf
as below:


and the bpbatch.bpb file as below

################# /tftpboot/lts/bpbatch/bpbatch.bpb  ############
set CacheNever="ON"
set len=@"$Basename"
set len=($len - 9)
set mybase="$Basename"[0-$len]
LinuxBoot "$mybase/bzImage-3.0.1-ltsp-4" "root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc rw"
"mybase/initrd-2.4.19-ltsp-1.gz"
################# End /tftpboot/lts/bpbatch/bpbatch.bpb #########
^
This is your problem, should be "$mybase/initrd-2.4.19-ltsp-1.gz".
The bpbatch script gets the path to the bpbatch executable, strips off 9 characters and uses as the $mybase variable to point to the kernel.
