Kurt, Adam,
Thanks for the help! I ran the packet sniffer, i ran arp, nothing
nothing nothing, then i realized i'd forgotten to un-comment the
additions i made to the firewall to allow the traffic. Now it seems
to be downloading the bootImage just fine, hopefully i'll get one of
these things up and running by Monday ^_^
Oops! Just got this... right when I found a site that discussed tftp
error messages too!
On a side note, I'm very glad to hear that there will be an update to
the debian-diskless documentation. I've been writing a tutorial of
sorts (more so i could replicate what i've done later with out having
to look up all the webpages i've searched through and trial and error
stuff), but if it would be any help, i would be happy to contribute
what i've written to the documentation (once i've gotten through the
process once or twice anyway).
There has been a burst of activity in diskless research in recent
months... it seems that there is a growing interest in this approach
(whether or not you have disk in your client nodes). Would you care to
contribute to the diskless dialogue at http://wiki.debian.net?
