[Oscar-users] Step 2 dont work!

Hello people!

Im using Oscar to make a cluster at the Deutsche Post... they want to look into clustering technology and so I recommended OSCAR. Problem is I got some old PCs and cant get them to network boot. So I write the MAC.info file manually.. and when I go to step 7, because I cant network boot I get all sort of problems..

Network boot: I use the floppy method: the DHCP daemon is runnning and without firewall problems (other computers get their IP from this DHCP server). The clients to make put the cluster boot but they just say "founf realtek device 8139 " and then they display the message of "looking for DHCP server". The dhcpd.conf file has the "filename" directive to the /tftpboot/vmlinuz file. tcpdump tells me the clients are periodically sending some sort of request something...

I suspect my problem is with the tftp daemon or somenthing (do I have to set it up manually, if so how?). If anyone is reading this and saying "poor guy, I know how that feels..." please drop a line... I�ve read the manual too many times and reruned lui another few :-)

wiedersehen!
