Hello, im trying to install netbsd 1.6 on a R5000 O2
my dhcp/tftp server is a linux redhat 7.3
my tftp is working because i tried to get some files from another
machine and everything goes ok
my dhcpd.conf is this
shared-network VBNET
{
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0
{
range 192.168.0.1 192.168.255.254;
host wendy=20
{
hardware ethernet 08:00:69:0c:b0:21;
fixed-address 192.168.0.8;
filename "/tftpboot/netbsd-sgimips";
}
}
}
i did exactly what install.txt tell me
i'll install from network, saving files locally
on prom i typed:
>> setenv SystemPartition bootp():
>> setenv netaddr 192.168.0.8
>> boot
on linux, i checked /var/log/messages and see this:
...

...
on SGI O2 side, after some time (after boot command)
no server for :/sash
your netaddr environment variable may be set incorrectly, or
the net may be too busy for a connection to be made.
unable to execute bootp():/sash: could not connect to server.
unable to load bootp():/sash: could not connect to remote server.

thanks
