=== racter can't read elf [12:23] you should see womething like: in.tftpd[2914] : tftp: client does not accept options [12:23] the ubuntu tftp netboot triggers such a message [12:23] in syslog? [12:23] yes [12:23] i grep'ed everything in /var/log for 'tftp' but nothing [12:25] probably cliebow has an idea, he's more familiar with the different ppc things you need to regard, i only every worked with one single ppc might be you need totally different options for yours [12:26] got it - thx ogra [12:26] i'll try to catch cliebow [12:27] also habve a look at wiki.ltsp.org for different dhcpd conf settings etc [12:28] it has some docs about ppc ... even these are for ltsp 4.2 much of the server side stuff applies [12:35] lynn-:i netboot powerpc [12:35] we just booted an i386 thin-client successfully and we didn't see any tftp requests anywhere [12:36] cliebow: what? [12:36] oic you netboot powerpc? [12:37] cliebow_, do you know anything about "can't read elf"? === SimonAnibal [n=sruiz@pool-71-120-186-33.aubnin.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #edubuntu [12:38] i mean the "can't read elf" error [12:38] that we get when we try to netboot a ppc [12:38] no...but you should see what nfsroot it is trying to mount\ [12:39] what ppc client anyway? [12:39] it's a blue-ish g4 tower [12:39] blue and gray [12:39] blue-gray & dark grey [12:41] it seeems that would be the latest firmware...if you ctrl-optn-o-f you can go to openfirmwaartre..but that wont give you any logging..you need to watch the servers logs.. [12:41] or use ewiresshark' [12:41] right - we're in openfirmware typing `enet:0` on the client [12:42] on the server we can see that it is getting dhcp requests but nothing about tftp [12:42] boot enet:192.168.whaatever [12:42] we were trying that before - like enet:192.168.0.254 [12:42] do we need to put a path there too? [12:42] racter..sometimes the position of yaboot and yaboot.conf is important [12:43] it seems sometimes important for those to be in the root of the tftp chroot.. [12:44] o ok - which would be /var/lib/tftpboot ? [12:44] if you use wireshark..cana you see 606 packets or so as if the kernel is loading? [12:45] i'll install it now [12:45] like 31 nonsense packets..then dhcp..then the kernel coming down [12:51] here's one "read request, file: /vmlinux, Transfer type: octet[Malformed Packet] " [12:51] like 31 of them? [12:51] just one of those [12:52] oohh it ids loading the i386 jkernel [12:52] and that's followed by a "file not found" tftp msg [12:52] we'll try enet:192.168.0.254,yaboot [12:52] why not post your dhcpd.conf so i can see what you are using..perhaps pastebot.ltsp.org....use the dropdown to specify ltsp [12:53] even better maybe tyake this over there [12:53] http://pastebot.ltsp.org/152 [12:54] ok - lynn+i are in that channel too [12:54] i wonder if your openfirmware is sending a different option 60 [12:56] with wireshark you should be aable to see if the client is sending AAPLBSDPC as vendor class identifier [12:57] this i s an ubuntu server right? and you are looking at /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf === nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.nixternal] has joined #edubuntu [12:57] hey, where in wireshark should we be looking? [12:57] we never used it before this [12:57] should be a ble to Closely examine every packet [12:58] o thanks [12:59] i have a g4 ibook here as a client [12:59] kernel loaded, "can't claim malloc buffer" error [12:59] ok we symlinked /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/powerpc/yaboot to /var/lib/tftpboot/yaboot and then booted the client enet:192.168.0.254,yaboot - now we are getting that malloc error [01:00] that is wierd...does wireshark show it is loading /yaboot? [01:01] checking [01:03] it looks like it is loading /yaboot [01:03] and then choking with this malloc error [01:04] i have a demo setup here...sony ibook and ibook g4 [01:06] i am getting a wireshark outpit of successful boot to send you..and my dhcpd.conf [01:07] great === rpereira [n=rpereira@ubuntu/member/rpereira] has joined #edubuntu [01:16] racter:theoretically you can pick up that capture at 169.244.3.137/applenetboot...like 12 meg of it..give it a minute to upload [01:17] this is a capture i can load into wireshark? [01:18] so no clue about the "malloc buffer" error? [01:19] it looks like it loaded the kernel and then crashed for some reason [01:19] never saw that before. [01:19] are you looking at the wireshark capture? [01:19] the machine became unresponsive and i had to reboot [01:20] jake is [01:20] i mean racter is [01:20] it is up thereyou shhould bee able to file..open that with wireshark [01:20] so i see yours is requesting /ltsp/powerpc/yaboot [01:21] we'll try enet:192.168.0.254,ltsp/powerpc/yaboot [01:22] perhaps..this an ubuntu,right? and you are using /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf.. [01:23] ya [01:24] one machine gives us a malloc error and the other says "unknown or corrupt filesystem" [01:24] two different errors using the same command [01:24] both in yaboot 1.3.13 but on different machines [01:24] a g3 & a g4 [01:25] something is really wonky.. [01:25] wanna post yaboot.conf? [01:25] from the server? [01:25] ya [01:26] http://pastebot.ltsp.org/153 [01:27] this was generated automatically by ltsp-build-client [01:30] can you verify that /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/powerpc/vmlinux is a simlink to [01:30] 2.6.20-12 [01:30] etc etcx etc [01:31] vmlinux-2.6.20-15-powerpc ya [01:38] i am unsure whether your error involves a corrupt yaboot or vmlijnux [01:39] maybe we should rebuild them? [01:39] you can try my yaboot if you like at 169.244.3.137/yaboot.gz 9unzip it) [01:39] ok [01:39] and 9i think) powerpckernel.feisty.tar.gz [01:40] dhcpd.conf is there as well [01:40] thx [01:41] wish i could see just what is happening [01:41] that kicked us back out to open firmware [01:41] weird!
