Hi all,

I remember having this problem on a Uvax II with 1.4.1 as well.  I took
Chuck McManis's advice and added dhcp to the server, and I've never 
had netboot problems with that machine again.  Ragge had also E-mailed
the group at the time, and I think there was something wrong with 
the mopboot file in that version.  Why not try a slightly newer 
version, say, 1.4.2?
