Problem netbooting the daily built power3 image
HI there,
There was a follow up by another thread 'problem
installing linux on an IBM RS6000 44P-170 machine' but
I guess more people would be interested in this test.
As Jens suggested, I downloaded the
vmlinuz-chrp.initrd from
http://people.debian.org/~luther/d-i/images/daily/power3/netboot/
. I used to
0>boot net
to boot the IBM RS6000 44P-170 machine. It found the
image and downloaded it. While it was downloading, I
issued several
#arp -s <ip> <mac>
command on the tftpserver to make the client download
the whole image which is larger than 2M.
Here is what I saw on the RS6k machine console.
0> boot net
LOAD: Waiting 60 seconds for Spanning Tree
BOOTP R=1 BOOTP S=1
FILE: tftpboot.img
Load Addr=0x4000 Max Size=0xbfc000
FINAL Packet Count=10892 Final File Size =5576584
CLAIM failed
ok
0>
Could anyone tell what the problem is?
Thank you very much.
Shi Jin
