I have a debian linux 3.0 on my PC

I've installed bootp, tftp.

712 looks for /tftpboot/tftpboot.img on his
bootserver. It has to be a valid 'lifimage'. 

There are a kernel and a ramdisk in the lifimage. It
has to start and download and configure the system
over the net.

I didn'nt win yet this challenge -  I have now other
tasks.

My 712 download the lifimage and hungs up on the 'the
language choice' (or something like this) menu.

I can give you details of tftp and bootp linux's
config if you wish.

I'm also interessed in your experiance - I have to
return to this task

Good luck

Jacek
