Newer etherboot versions should ignore DHCP offers if they do not
contain a filename - dhcp routers afaik don't send one.

Would be nice if you had full control over the router, which I
personally do not - so we wired all the LTSP terminals to a separate
ethernet segment. No headaches this way.

Bootloader for WinCE

Hello,

  I know this is not the best place do ask this, but I am 
really lost about it. So, I would be really pleased if you
can help me.
  I am installing a diskless x86 workstation using Windows CE.
It has PXE features and it gets IP address through DHCP 
server. I've installed a TFTP server but I can't find a 
boot loader to be used to download and boot the kernel 
image (nk.bin).
  Do you know a boot loader I can use ? I've heard something
about using Microsoft's "loadcepc.exe", but I can't find it.

  Can you, please, help me ?

Thank you very much.

Roberto

Trying to follow the docs (parallel DHCP_

I have read and I am attempting to use the instructions given by 
http://www.ltsp.org/contrib/parallel_dhcp.txt

I created the boot image with rom-o-matic which may be my problem.
The rom-o-matic files don't appear to be disk images, and the disks it's
self is not mountable. But if so, where else am I supposed to get the
boot image?

specifically dealing with the "mount -o loop" commands.

The image from Rom-o-matic is just an etherboot boot image that
you place in the boot block of the floppy.  You do NOT mount it.

The image you want to mount is the initrd file that is included
in the ltsp_initrd_kit package.

Make sure tftpd is configured properly (e.g. with the -s /tftpboot
switch) - look into /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinet.d/tftp....
Then, a file /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1 must exist, and make
sure it is mode 444 (or more, at your choice). The "chmod" command
(man chmod) may be your weapon of choice. Assure the permission of
/tftpboot and /tftpboot/lts to be 555 (or more).
