hi, i've got little problem
i've configured everything (ehtherboot, dhcp, tftp, nfs) step by step and
everything seems to work fine. when i try to boot a workstation this
happens:

.
.
.
  ROM checksum self-test: passed (0x04f4518b).
Running dhclient

ERROR!  No root-path. Check your DHCP configuration, to make
             sure that the 'option root-path' is specified

Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!


my dhcpd.conf

-------------------------------------
ddns-update-style             none;
ddns-updates                  off;

default-lease-time            21600;
max-lease-time                21600;

option subnet-mask            255.0.0.0;
option broadcast-address      10.255.255.255;
option routers                10.0.0.1;
option domain-name-servers    10.0.0.1;
option domain-name            "mydomain.net";
option root-path              "10.0.0.1:/opt/ltsp/i386";

option option-128 code 128 = string;
option option-129 code 129 = text;


subnet 10.0.0.0
netmask 255.0.0.0 {
    range 10.0.0.10 10.0.0.11;

}

group   {
    use-host-decl-names       on;
    option log-servers        10.0.0.1;


    host workstation1 {
        hardware ethernet     00:02:55:25:7C:F9;
        fixed-address         10.0.0.10;
        filename              "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1";
        option option-128     00:02:55:25:7C:F9;
        option option-129     "NIC=eepro100";
    }
}

-------------------------------------


it seems it's related to this, but i don't fully understand it:

dhclient will then be run, to make another query from the DHCP server. We
need to do this separate user-space query, because if we depend on the
query that comes from Etherboot, it will get swallowed up by the kernel.
And, the kernel will ignore any NFS server that might have been specified
in the root-path. This is important if you want the NFS server to be
different from the TFTP server.

many thanks for replies.
