It that due to the topology of your network or for lack of another machine?

Interesting. Were you running mvpboot when you captured the traffic you 
posted previously? It seemed like the IP address it handed out was 
correct (as evidenced by the MVP ARP request for your server's IP 
address). The corresponding syslog logs should also show whether the 
correct address was handed out by mvpboot.

Do you have multiple Ethernet interfaces in use? mvpboot should have 
automatically determined your server's address using Net::Interface. 
After you get your MVP booting, perhaps we should come back to this and 
figure out why it didn't work.

I've seen the same timeouts and posted about them before, but in my case 
the boot succeeds. I don't know why they are occurring, and I've toyed 
around with the various timeout settings.

Here's an example from my logs when I was using atftpd:

atftpd[2587]: Serving dongle.bin to 192.168.0.242:2049
atftpd[2587]: timeout: retrying...
last message repeated 6 times
atftpd[2587]: recvmsg: Connection refused
atftpd[2587]: tftpd_file.c: 926: recvfrom: Connection refused


And after switching to BSD tftpd:

tftpd[19396]: tftpd: read: Connection refused
tftpd[19398]: tftpd: read: Connection refused


So something is misbehaving. Probably the TFTP client in the Hauppauge 
firmware. I don't always see the errors, but they don't seem to 
interfere with the booting process.

At this point it sounds like you have all the prerequisites for booting 
working correctly. I'm not sure what to suggest next, other than to try 
a different dongle, and as a longer shot, try the BSD TFTP server.

The larger file provides more opportunity for timeouts.

Worth checking, but I don't think you'd get to the timeout error if the 
TFTP server couldn't access the requested file.
