Got past DHCPDISCOVER (tcpdump was showing a different MAC address, I finally sat in front of the console and saw the "correct" MAC address and replaced that in dhcpd.conf).
The first PXE attempt responds (in server logs) with "tftp: client does not accept options." Then, about 15 seconds later, it tries again, and this time boots into busybox (I see the logs which get sent to the server's syslog). Then I'm stuck here: kernel: checking if image is initramfs...it isn't (no cpio magic); looks like an initrd And then tons of DHCPDISCOVER's on lo and eth1 to 255.255.255.255 which never get answered (it finally gives up with "No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping." I've set up a fixed address for this node (which works at the first DHCP for tftp). Any idea what's going on here? Oh, there's no way for me to manually test the PXE client AFAIK. It's the planar intel (uses e100 driver) on the x330's.
