[syslinux] TFTP issue

[Jan Engelhardt]

Hello list,


pxelinux is stuck in the following place:

PXELINUX 2.11 0x4321babe
...
My IP address seems to be AC1300FE 172.19.0.254
ip=172.19.0.254:0.0.0.0:172.19.0.1:255.255.255.0
TFTP prefix:
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/01-00-0c-29-49-49-c9
(waits here for a while before proceeding to...)
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1300FE


tcpdump shows me:

IP 172.19.0.254.57091 > 0.0.0.0:69:  50 RRQ 
"pxelinux.cfg/01-00-0c-29-49-49-c9"

Which can't be right, because there's nothing at 0.0.0.0.
I probably need to add the "next-server" option to the dhcpd.conf, but 
can't PXELINUX just use the DHCP server as the fileserver?

(And, I seem to recall that it worked "before" even without any 
next-server statement, but don't assume it.)
