Build kernel.AP91 with your buildscripts and trying to tftpboot the board with that but getting following errors in /var/log/messages on my tftpserver (my laptop) flymockour-l7 in.tftpd[11247]: tftpd: oack: Host is down - when I do "tftpboot 0x80050000 kernel.AP91" and tftp transfer never gets done (keeps timing out) I am not sure what this means but I will try putting switch in-between my laptop and the board and see if I can make this thing to work. Anybody with some clue what this means? Thanks, Hiren > > > > -adrian >
