Hello all,
I develop embedded devices that do a network boot (for the OS, the kernel is
in flash). The latest card hangs during the bootp sequence and wireshark
running on the DHCP server doesn't see any packet.
I'm no network engineer so I need a little help with this:
Linux/PowerPC load: console=ttyUL0,115200 root=/dev/nfs rw ip=bootp

On the DHCP server nothing comes through (no packet shown by wireshark).
After that nothing happens (no new dots after "Sending BOOTP requests ."
like when there's no physical connection)
I've tried with 2 different network cards on the server, a crossover cable,
a straight cable (which normally works too), 2 switches (10mbps and 1gbps),
a 100mbps hub...
I have another design with the exact same kernel, only different dts
(hardware definition) file.
$ cat /etc/dhcpd.conf:
allow bootp;
allow booting;
ddns-update-style interim;
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
default-lease-time 21600;
option routers 192.168.1.185;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option ntp-servers 192.168.1.185;
# range dynamic-bootp 192.168.1.128 192.168.1.254;
}
host meascur {
hardware ethernet 0:a:35:61:9:0;
fixed-address 192.168.1.232;
server-name "192.168.1.185";
option host-name "meascur";
option root-path
"192.168.1.185:/media/meascur,v3,rsize=1024,wsize=1024,proto=tcp,nolock, intr";
}
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/dhcpd
DHCPDARGS=eth1
$ cat /etc/exports
/media/meascur
meascur(rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,async,inse cure,fsid=0)
If I try to ping 192.168.1.232 from the server, on eth1 I see packets:
205 269.000435 Broadcom_5f:67:bc Broadcast ARP
Who has 192.168.1.232? Tell 192.168.1.185
But obviously no reply.
What can I try to diagnose this ?
