Andrey et al, Hurray, I managed to re-flash the camera. Points to take home: - the Atheros AR8131 ethernet card really sucks, including the atl1c kernel module. this is why I was not seing the packets correctly. if you can allow yourself, don't buy a laptop with this ethernet card. - the nfs s

Akos, Does your PC loses ip when you disconnect the camera? Could you check its ip after you launch ./netboot... (having "Starting boot...") when the cam is disconnnected before putting it to the netboot mode (you wrote somewhere the camera was connected directly to the PC). Best regards, Oleg O
