Okay,

I got the dhcp server compiled and working on my G4, I am running it in
verbose mode and well here is my config for netbooting my slot loading iMac:

***start***

  ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
  option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;

# Hosts which require special configuration options can be listed in
# host statements.   If no address is specified, the address will be
# allocated dynamically (if possible), but the host-specific information
# will still come from the host declaration.
 
host emacfreebsd {
            hardware ethernet 00:0a:27:95:e2:aa;
            fixed-address 192.168.0.3;
            always-reply-rfc1048 on;
            option root-path "192.168.0.4:/ppc-root-latest";
            option routers 192.168.0.4;
            filename "loader";
          }
           
  ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
  option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;

# Hosts which require special configuration options can be listed in
# host statements.   If no address is specified, the address will be
# allocated dynamically (if possible), but the host-specific information
# will still come from the host declaration.
 
host emacfreebsd {
            hardware ethernet 00:0a:27:95:e2:aa;
            fixed-address 192.168.0.3;
            always-reply-rfc1048 on;
            option root-path "192.168.0.4:/ppc-root-latest";
            option routers 192.168.0.4;
            filename "loader";
          }
           
***EOF***

Okay and I am getting this error:

I have setup tftp and nfs, both of which I believe are working, my tftproot
is /tftproot

My nfs export is /ppc-root-latest

What am I doing wrong, the imac is saying that the DHCP/BootP failied, can't
open loader??
