Bringing up a RouterBoard RB800, I'm trying to use the bootpd server that comes in base to netboot the board from another system. The kernel boots fine, but when it tries to mount the root, it attempts another DHCP/BOOTP request, and continuously times out. Has anyone else been able to get a machine to boot from BOOTP (not DHCP) using the base utilities? The configuration is as follows: /etc/bootptab: jumpgate:hn:ha=000c42aedcc6:bf=kernel.rb800:ip=10.0.0.2:rp="10.0.0.5:/zhabar/jails/rb800":vm=rfc1048:sa=10.0.0.5: Relevant logs: RouterBoard: ... bootpc_init: wired to interface 'tsec0' Sending DHCP Discover packet from interface tsec0 (00:0c:42:ae:dc:c6) tsec0: link state changed to DOWN tsec0: link state changed to UP DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 ... bootpd: bootpd: info(6): recvd pkt from IP addr 0.0.0.0 bootpd: info(6): bootptab mtime: Wed Mar 25 23:04:17 2015 bootpd: info(6): request from Ethernet address 00:0C:42:AE:DC:C6 bootpd: info(6): found 10.0.0.2 (jumpgate) bootpd: info(6): bootfile="/kernel.rb800" bootpd: info(6): vendor magic field is 99.130.83.99 bootpd: info(6): request message length=1460 bootpd: info(6): request has DHCP msglen=1460 bootpd: info(6): extended reply, length=1418, options=1182 bootpd: info(6): sending reply (with RFC1048 options) bootpd: info(6): setarp 10.0.0.2 - 00:0C:42:AE:DC:C6 Every request looks like that. I also ran tcpdump to check, and that looks fine. I'm using the stock MPC85XX kernel config with unrelated changes (additional devices, debugging, for other purposes). Thanks, Justin
