I see not to much problems, except:
- my configspace depending a bit on sarge

Just keep it (a copy of it).
Does FAI 3 support serving several nfsroot out of the box?
It's not FAI that manages the nfsroot - it's the TFTP server, and,
yes, tftpd-hpa has been doing this for quite some time (I'm running
three nfsroots for different architectures)
Cheers,

(ATM doing the opposite: serving an etch amd64 nfsroot from a sarge
i386 machine :-)

I see an the boot screen of the clients: Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/mac-address but i always had pxelinux.cfg/596A4804 Older versions of pxelinux.0 did not support loading by using the MAC address. So check the changelog of syslinux an use an older version of pxelinux.0. -- regards Thomas

It seems that you have a different problem. Normally pxelinux.0 tries to load the file with the MAC address, and if this does not exist, it tries other files (IP in hex) and at last the file default. Daniel, did you already enable verbose logging for the tftpd? If so, what does it say? Does it receive any request at all? Best, Michael pgp1tdSOyaFwp.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: trying to load...
[...] oke when i write a file to the tftp server it seems to be work: Apr 16 12:36:47 pxe-server in.tftpd[17766]: WRQ from 89.106.72.1 filename test.log When i want to connect i dont see any logs :( Does connect here mean booting one of your computers? Then, there is no attempt made to contact that tftp server... This might be a DHCP misconfiguration or a network problem. HTH, Michael pgpJwxq8no6Z9.pgp Description: PGP signature
