G4 eMac won't netboot
I've been trying various things in my dhcpd.conf to boot my G4 eMac,
including an identical setup that works for a B&W G3, and it still
doesn't work.
It's this one:

In the DHCP inform packet (viewed with wireshark from the NetBSD
5_STABLE server), I see this:
Server host name not given
Boot file name not given
I do have them specified in the dhcpd.conf though:
host bugs {
hardware ethernet 00:0D:93:53:5E:82;
filename "netbsd";
fixed-address 192.168.1.4;
server-name "foghorn";
option root-path "/home/bugs/root";
next-server foghorn;
}
I've seen that other people are having problems with G4 Macs as well:

I don't know what to do next with it. It would be nice to confirm that
NetBSD works on it.
