Hi,

> When you say "boot enet:0" in OF,

No. It tells me "can't open enet:0" I have to type "boot enet"


> I've got bootpd, tftpd, and nfsd running on the boot server.

Me too.

I have

powerbook:\
        bf=ofwboot.elf:hn:ht=ether:\
        ha=0005020fdcb2:ip=194.77.82.54:\
        gw=194.77.82.55:rp=/tftpboot:\
        sm=255.255.255.240:

because:

May  6 23:17:16 alice bootpd[10770]: in entry named "powerbook", symbol  
"hn": bad syntax


after trying to boot (by typing "boot enet") I get:

May  6 23:22:59 alice bootpd[10859]: version 2.4.1
May  6 21:22:59 alice tftpd[10868]: 194.77.82.54: read request for  
/ofwboot.elf: success

On the server. (I added a "-l" to tftpd in /etc/inetd.conf)

alice# file /tftpboot/ofwboot.elf
/tftpboot/ofwboot.elf: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, PowerPC, version 1

On the black PPC, I read still default catch...
