Yes, i have read that in a Redhat FAQ, at
http://www.europe.redhat.com/documentation/HOWTO/MIPS-HOWTO-6.php3
But it isn't the problem, perhaps my tftp server but I try from another station
tftp server
get vmlinux-2.4.2.ecoff
and it's OK

so, I think it's in the bootp profile, but
the entry in my /etc/bootptab
pamela:ip=192.168.16.86:td=/tftpboot:bf=vmlinux-2.4.2.ecoff:ha=08006906D5F1
The log (bootpd -d 9) in the syslog
