Something seems strange.  I see no signs of a SYN/ACK coming back
which would be seen if it could open the TCP socket and be before the
HTTP request is sent.  How did you capture the data on the serial
port?  Some terminal apps allow you to export directly to a file.
minicom's -C _file_ and using Konsole's "Scrollback" | "Save output"
are two examples.  For consistency's sake, could you possibly post
both the serial output and packet capture from the same run?  I'm
curious to see the output of when the first results in a file not
found with the second being found then separately (second run/capture)
when the first is found (I think you accomplished this with DHCP
option 209).  If possible (at least for the second), leave both
running until it reaches the "boot:" prompt.

Commonly the packet capture files that are in PCAP format are seen
with a .cap or .pcap extension and both the packet capture and serial
output should be fairly compressible.
