tftp: client does not accept options

[Ole Ersoy]

Hi,

I'm trying to pxe boot a machine, and I get the following in /var/log/messages

May 13 15:18:54 ole in.tftpd[3913]: tftp: client does not accept options

The client machine just hangs on the line:
Trying to Load: pxelinux.cfg/default

Thoughts?

TIA,
- Ole

Could you send us the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default?

Marek,

I do not have a /tftpboot directory.  I did try rerunning cobbler sync, but it does not create it...Thoughts?

On my recent hosts, I believe it's been /var/lib/tftpboot not /tftpboot.
Perhaps you will find it there

Type 'menu' and see what happens? That message about client does not
accept options is a fairly benign one. I see it from time to time and
haven't tracked it down, however I've not had the problems related to
it.

How many profiles do you have? Does $TFTPBOOTLOC/pxelinux.cfg/default
contain what you would expect? Can we see it?

[Ole Ersoy]

The machine I'm attempting to boot will not accept any keyboard input while it is hanging.  I only have one profile.  The contents of /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default look like this:

DEFAULT menu
