-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi, I'm attempting to boot a machine off the floppy, and mount all filesystems over NFS. The network card is supported by the kernel xl driver, but not by the netboot code. Therefore, I created a kernel with the BOOTP and BOOTP_NFSROOT options and put it on a floppy. The reply from the BOOTP server is not being received (i.e. ``BOOTP timeout for server 0xffffffff''). The client and the BOOTP server are on the same network. Is there any documentation for use of kernel BOOTP? Is anyone using it successfully? Any advice on diagnosing the problem?
