My nbi.img file is taking forever to load, as it it has never fully
loaded, yet (maybe been sitting here for 45 minutes).
For the first time i'm running LTSP as a libvirt/kvm virtual machine.
I'm also running a client as a libvirt/kvm virtual machine that pxe
boots. for some reason it's taking forever to read the nbi.img file.
The server is 64bit, and the client is 32bit. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.
I've tried different virtual network cards with no luck. So far I've
tried the e1000 and virtio NICs. I couldn't get the e1000 to pxe boot.
This is for a testing environment at the moment.
I have configured an isolated virtual network for in the KVM/Libvirt
console.. both the server and the client are connected to it. This is
what i get:
Probing pci nic...
[virtio-net]I/O address 0x0000c040, IRQ 10.0.0.1
MAC address 52:54:00:04:58:B9
Searching for server (DHCP)
Me: 10.0.0.20, DHCP 10.0.0.1, TFTP: 10.0.0.1, Gateway 10.0.0.1
Loading 10.0.0.1:/ltspi386/nbi.img ........

The i386.img file is 544MB.
Any ideas?
Maybe there is an issue with my paths?
Here is the contents of my dhcpd.conf file:
andy@glasswing:~$ cat /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf

} else {

}
}

Anything else?
