Hi all,

After fixing the problem I had earlier in step 4, everything worked fine until I tried to install the client nodes. If I boot over the network, linux loads but then I get the message "no floppy diskette in drive" and later "IP address not set with pre-boot settings". The dhclient program prints out a startup message and then just hangs, constantly accessing the floppy drive. If I start with a boot floppy, the same thing happens, except instead of "no floppy diskette in drive", I get "no local.cfg on floppy diskette".

From what I could gather from other messages, this means that the DHCP server is not being found, and that it might have something to do with my hardware. Is this correct? I'm sorry if this has been answered before but I've gotten tired of waiting minutes each for the list-archive pages to load : )

The network controllers are built into an Intel motherboard, if that helps.

David
