        flags                   = IPv4
}


also i tired to strace the process, i don't know if i was doing it
correctly, but it showed that the file "vmlinuz" was opened but was
never read. So I did tried changing the ownership of the TFTP folder
(/tftpboot) to nobody and tried but the results where the same.


Thanks
