Hi,
after I installed LTSP on my SuSE 8.1 machine successfully, I have some
problems when trying to boot over my network.
I have a RTL8139 chip on my network-card, but no ROM. So I generated a
boot-ROM on www.rom-o-matic.net with a boot-header for disks. Then I wrote
this on a disk.
When I try to boot from the disk, everything is OK, but when he sends a
DHCP-signal to the network, a point "." is shown... after afew seconds
another one... but nothing else happens.
Here's the /var/log/messages from my server:
Dec 12 14:13:08 linux dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:c1:26:0b:1f:e8 via eth0:
network WORKSTATIONS: no free
leases
Dec 12 14:13:39 linux last message repeated 2 times
Dec 12 14:14:19 linux dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:c1:26:0b:1f:e8 via eth0:
network WORKSTATIONS: no free
leases
I looked at the DHCP configuration but everything looks fine:
# Sample configuration file for ISCD dhcpd
#
# Don't forget to set run_dhcpd=1 in /etc/init.d/dhcpd
# once you adjusted this file and copied it to /etc/dhcpd.conf.
#
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
default-lease-time 21600; #600
max-lease-time 21600; #7200
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.0.254;
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.254;
option domain-name "ltsp-server";
option root-path "192.168.0.254:/opt/ltsp/i386";
option option-128 code 128 = string;
option option-129 code 129 = text;
###
log-facility local7;
###
shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
}
}
group {
use-host-decl-names on;
option log-servers 192.168.0.254;
host ws001 {
hardware ethernet 00:E0:06:E8:00:84;
fixed-address 192.168.0.3;
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6";
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00;
option option-129 "NIC=eepro100";
}
host ws002 {
hardware ethernet 00:D0:09:30:6A:1C;
fixed-address 192.168.0.4;
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6";
option option-128 e4:45:74:68:00:00;
option option-129 "NIC=tulip";
}
}
I used the fixed addresses 192.168.0.3 and .4, because in my local network
192.168.0.1 is my main machine and 192.168.0.2 is my notebook.
The ddns-update-style should be adhoc, as a SuSE-error-message told me before.
No other hints in the manual of LTSPand in Googlegroups could solve the
problem.
Thanks a lot for any help!
