Yan,
Please do what was suggested to troubleshoot tftp, this is the only
solution and reinstalling will not help. The message you get is quite
typical from a misconfigured pxelinux looking files at the wrong location
and thus not finding them... which is exactly what the message is saying.
The easiest is to find a tftp client and try the things manually. But it
seems there is no tftp client in standard SL distrib, probably you can find
one on the net.
Else check your configuration. If you put the tftp stuff under /tftpboot,
you need to have a line like the following in your /etc/xinetd.d/tftp:
server_args = -s /tftpboot
At LAL, we put the PXE stuff in /tftpboot/quattor. Here is the content of
this directory:
[r...@quattorsrv RPMS]# ls /tftpboot/quattor/
pxelinux.0 sl304_i386 sl420_i386 sl440_x86_64 sl510_x86_64
pxelinux.cfg sl305_i386 sl420_x86_64 sl450_x86_64 sl520_x86_64
rescue sl305_i386.saved sl430_i386 sl460_i386
rhel305_x86_64 sl307_i386 sl430_x86_64 sl460_x86_64
sl303_i386 sl308_i386 sl440_i386 sl500_x86_64
pxelinux.cfg contents is managed by aii-shellfe command but you need to
ensure you defined the following parameter in /etc/aii/aii-shellfe.conf:
nbpdir = /tftpboot/quattor/pxelinux.cfg

Dear ALL
I got problem when I use SL52 for "dhcp + tftp + http" server to install
os for other client machine. But it have some problem.
The client machine could get ip address from dhcp server. And get the
boot loader file(pxelinux.0) from tftp server. But it could not continue
to get the rest of the files.
The error message is :
The message is :
PXE entry point found (we hope) at 97BC:00DA
My IP address seems to be C0A83825 192.168.56.37
Ip=192.168.56.37:0.0.0.0:192.168.56.1:255.255.255.0
TFTP prefix:
Trying to load:pxelinux.cfg/01-00-22-19-82-6f-27 (This step is very
slowly) Trying to load:pxelinux.cfg/C0A83825 (This step is
very slowly)
I have been use pxe for os install lot of time on sl4x. But never
successful on sl5x. I test sl52_i386 and sl52_x86_64. It was the same
problem.
This was the log message on tftp and dhcp server :
