hi
i'm using the system with pIII,intel 815 chipset with
PXE enabled bios...and 3com NIC..
on the server side i'm using pxelinux.0 as boot
loader,dhcp server and tftp server..

when i boots the system dhcp reply is proper ..
i captured the packets..
so it shows that it ask for pxelinux.cfg/c0a80115 file
then the client get rebooted automatically...
it doesn't send any packet asking for kernel or
ramdisk as expected from configuration file...

i'm not understanding where it is going wrong..

thanks in advance..

Seems your system has a real problem. Which version of pxelinux do
you use? Which version has the 3com Boot Manager? Is this an
on-board ethernet or is it a card? Exact Chipset?
What does pxelinux tell you while booting? Did you try to create
the requested config file? Give more details of your problem.

Regards,

Josef
