Jim,
Thanks for your speedy and accurate reply. My little clients are now
booting correctly.

Steve,
Sounds like you've been bitten by the dhcpd 3.0.3 problem.
take a look at this wiki page that explains the problem and the solution.

Hope that takes care of it.

I've been using ltsp for about a year and a half with a Gentoo
server and a couple of HP Compaq t5500's. The last Gentoo update
attempt went very wrong and made the system unusable. I've installed
Slackware 10.2 on the server and am trying to get ltsp 4.1 running.
I've spent the last day going over everything thoroughly, reading
the documentation, wiki and mailing list archives. The pxe loader
does not seem to be able to find its file. The listing of the
lts/2.4.26-ltsp-3 directory is as follows:
# ls -lR

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 906616 2005-04-19 00:30 bzImage-2.4.26-ltsp-3

./pxelinux.cfg:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 124 2005-12-30 13:19 default
I gunzipped initrd-2.4.26-ltsp-3.gz and renamed it initrd just in case
it might help.
The output on the ltsp client screen is:

It seems as though /lts/2.4.26-ltsp-3/pxelinux.0 is being loaded,
but it doesn't seem to be able to find
/lts/2.4.26-ltsp-3/pxelinux.cfg/default. The one thing that does look
suspicious is the "0.0.0.0" address near the center of the screen
output. I've added lots of -v options on the command line of in.tfptd
and all I get out of /var/log/syslog is:
Dec 30 19:53:46 in.tftpd[15464]: tftp: client does not accept options
the output of /var/log/messages isn't much more helpful:

I'm really stumped on this one. Thanks.
Steve
