Ok, I finally got the network working and got to step 5. Rightnow, I cannot get the clients to boot off of the floppy or the net.

First, only some of my clients' MACs come through when I collect. (booting from floppy) The ones that do I'm able to assign to node names, and when I reboot with floppy, I'm able to ping them a minute or two later, so I know they're getting their infor from DHCP.

Net boot works, acquires an IP, then tftp times out.

Floppy boot aborts on the error "Cannot read hostname, imagename, scriptname etc" (the one with the joke about scottish accent.

The tftp problem I think I know. install_cluster bombe because my system had tftp ver .33 instead of .27. I thought that install_cluster would put the correct version in, so I removed tftp ver .33. I guess that was probably a mistake. Can I add tftp ver 27 now, then rerun only the portion of the install that modifies those files, or should I start over?
