Well, this seems like an easy question.

I am trying to set up a bootp server for a diskless to boot.  However, I
can't receive any bootp request.  I have included all the kernel feature
needed (like multicast)...added the 255.255.255.255 route (Not sure if
needed on 2.4 kernel)...

I roughly remember that I have to echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/something

but nothing in 2.4 /proc/sys/net/ipv4 looks interesting as far as bootp
goes...Does anyone have any idea on bootp on kernel 2.4?

I tried dhcp..but for some reason, dhcpd would seg. fault on my machine,
whether I use the debian package, or compile myown.  After the seg. fault,
if I try to reboot, machine will hung on "shutting down network interface".
looks like a rather complicated problem compare to bootp...so...
thanks for any info....oh, I am using 2.4.3
