Hi,

I'm new to the Cobalt, having just got my first Raq 2. If I leave it 
alone, it boots GNU/Linux, so I know it works.

So I tried to netboot. I already have an NFS server on the network which 
works fine, and so I added the following as per the FAQ:

/etc/dhcpd.conf:

host cobalt {
         hardware ethernet 00:10:e0:00:3f:58;    # raq MAC
         fixed-address 67.101.178.19;            # raq address
         filename "/netbsd.gz";                  # kernel name in root-path
         option root-path "/export/raq";         # absolute dir on nfs server
         server-name="67.101.178.18";            # IP of nfs server
},

/etc/ethers:

# Cobalt Raq
00:10:e0:00:3f:58       cobalt

/etc/hosts (on both the DHCP / rarpd server and the NFS server):

67.101.178.19   cobalt

/etc/exports (on the NFS server):

/export/raq     -maproot=root:wheel -network 67.101.178.0/27

This is what I get from the DHCP / rarpd server:

Jan  6 11:47:57 grittykitty rarpd[28056]: received packet on rtk0
Jan  6 11:47:57 grittykitty dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from 00:10:e0:00:3f:58 via rtk0
Jan  6 11:47:57 grittykitty rarpd[28056]: 00:10:e0:00:3f:58 asked; cobalt replied
Jan  6 11:47:57 grittykitty dhcpd: BOOTREPLY for 67.101.178.19 to cobalt (00:10:e0:00:3f:58) via rtk0

I can ping cobalt from any machine, but it doesn't boot:

Cobalt: bfd /netbsd.gz nfsroot=/export/raq
Decompressing  done

And that's it. Am I forgetting something?

Thanks,
John Klos
