Thanks Sebastian,
I have tried the new boot cd from the link you sent. It appears that
this new kernel now recognizes my boot disk (I have a /sys/block/sda).
However, I seem to have a new problem. I am using PXE boot and when the
gentoo kernel tries to get a dhcp address, it fails stating the
Hi,
this could be a problem of your lease times
If you are running ISC DHCP you should use this options in your
configuration:
dynamic-bootp-lease-length 10
If you are running some other DHCP server you should consult the manual
to avoid this errors.
I dont think that this is a problem of
Thanks Mario,
No dice on the lease time. I set the default lease time to 10 and
still have the problem.
Running dhcpd in debug mode, it appears as if the dhcp server does offer
the client an IP address, but the client seems to think the address is
already in use in the DHCPDISCOVER routine.
I just realized that I may have made a mistake with my boot image. I am
using pxelinux.0 for my boot image and my pxelinux.cfg/default file
points to the uakernel and uaroot files. Is there another boot image I
am supposed to be using (outside of pxelinux.0)?
Thanks,
Bryan
On Fri,
Maybe you should upgrade your pxelinux.0 to the newest version.
Just a thought :-)
The pxe config is ok that way.
Sebastian

mmm What dhcp-server you are using? The gentoo boot-cd use an other
dhcp client. Maybe here is the problem.

I have decide to use dhcpcd because it is in active development, the
Sebastian and Mario, thanks for your help.
Here are the steps I took to resolve the problem:
1. Used the latest boot kernel from Unattended-gui, which contained
drivers from my hardware
2. Unarchived the uaroot boot image
-mkdir /tmp/initrd
-cd /tmp/initrd
-gzip -dc /tftpboot/uaroot |
Nice to hear once that you are fit with your linux and twice that we had
helped you out... I will try to add your expirience to our project at
least as fallback configuration.
Thank you for this response and sorry for my bad english... Its a work
in progress
