I built a FreeBSD 6.2 server according to the instructions in Michael R. Brumm's article @ http://www.michaelbrumm.com/how-to-install-freebsd-pxe.html
I am connecting the net4501 directly to the nic on the server, so there is no router involved. I set the router address same as the host address. The only thing different from the instructions was in the section on Configure the TFTP Directory section: There is no /cdrom/kernel directory to copy. I used /cdrom/boot/kernel instead. It was the only kernel directory I could find. When I attempt to boot from the net4501 console I get a Client IP 10.22.0.100, and a DHCP IP 10.222.0.1 (which is the IP of my server). Then I get many attempts to pxe boot like so: FreeBSD/i386 bootstrap loader, Revision 1.1 [EMAIL PROTECTED], Day, Date, etc. pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 start not found pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 | pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 pxe_open: server addr: 0.0.0.0 pxe_open: server path: /cdrom pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.222.0.1 can't load 'kernal' I've gone over the NFS and RPC configuration and the build instructions several times. Not sure what to look at next. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/pxe-boot-problems-4501-to-FreeBSD-6.2-box-tp18739392p18739392.html Sent from the Soekris - Technical mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
