tftp

[Hugh Saunders <hugh@mjr.org>]

hello debian-sparc people and surreyLUG people! 
I have a couple of IPCs (one of which was at last meeting) but am having
probs booting.

I can turn the thing on, set the mac address to something sensible, get
an ip from rarpd running on a linux box and start downloading
linux-a.out [for sparc] by tftpboot. The problem is that it doesnt
download the whole image, it stops at some arbitary [spelling?] point
and then tries to execute what it's got -obviously that doesnt work as
it hasnt got the whole image. Any ideas? the tftpd seems to work ok as i
can download the entire image using a tftpclient on another machine.

thanks,
