Hi Philippe, from support.microsoft.com (uhuh):
"If the client cannot connect, you may receive an error message similar to: PXE-T01: File not found PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - File not Found" Note _connect_: the error message is deceptive, at least in this case (it might also occur if the file really isn't there or isn't readable I I guess - I'm not sure if it would be exactly the same then). Since this can't be a cable issue (got an IP address) it's probably a firewall issue. Other sources of trouble are: - hosts.allow - hosts.allow + inetd/tcpd (if I recall well tcpd only reads the old hosts.allow(5) version, not the hosts_options(5) variant - always good for a few hours of frustration) - file permissions and ownership in [/var/lib]/tftpboot - with tftpd -s : pxelinux.0 is a symbolic link pointing outside the TFTP boot environment. That's a very silly one, but it has happened to me.. That's quite a lot to take care of at the same time, especially if the system is already configured for other roles (which might require TCP wrappers for example). Fix (hopefully): Try again with tftpd as standalone daemon and hosts.allow/deny and firewall disabled - if that's legally possible - and if it works gradually throw the various security features back in again. Otherwise check file permissions etc. Bill On Mon, 2009-02-09 at 13:56 +0400, philippe monroux wrote: > Hi all, > > I've followed : > http://wiki.soekris.info/Installing_Debian_Linux_(4.0r1_Etch) > http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/478 > but I get: > > ====================================================================== > comBIOS ver. 1.33 20070103 Copyright (C) 2000-2007 Soekris Engineering. > > net5501 > > 0512 Mbyte Memory CPU Geode LX 500 Mhz > > Pri Mas CF 128MB LBA 490-16-32 125 Mbyte > > Slot Vend Dev ClassRev Cmd Stat CL LT HT Base1 Base2 Int > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > 0:01:2 1022 2082 10100000 0006 0220 08 00 00 A0000000 00000000 10 > 0:06:0 1106 3053 02000096 0117 0210 08 40 00 0000E101 A0004000 11 > 0:07:0 1106 3053 02000096 0117 0210 08 40 00 0000E201 A0004100 05 > 0:08:0 1106 3053 02000096 0117 0210 08 40 00 0000E301 A0004200 09 > 0:09:0 1106 3053 02000096 0117 0210 08 40 00 0000E401 A0004300 12 > 0:20:0 1022 2090 06010003 0009 02A0 08 40 80 00006001 00006101 > 0:20:2 1022 209A 01018001 0005 02A0 08 00 00 00000000 00000000 > 0:21:0 1022 2094 0C031002 0006 0230 08 00 80 A0005000 00000000 15 > 0:21:1 1022 2095 0C032002 0006 0230 08 00 00 A0006000 00000000 15 > > 5 Seconds to automatic boot.
