dhcp server for omap-l137 have a problem.

I use fedora 9 set up dhcp server(dhcp-4.0.0-14.fc9.i386).When i turn on omap,I get the information is "tftp get server 0.0.0.0".When i set ipaddr and serverip by myself,tftp can transmit uImage.I check dhcpd server is running on pc and omap always get wrong information.Another old pc with redhat  9.0 can give right information and transmit uImage by dhcp server.What's the problem?
Can you help me?  Thanks!

  • I would suspect there is some configuration in your host DHCP server that is telling the EVM what the TFTP address should be and is setting it to something invalid, probably because the host DHCP configuration does not have the value initialized. Unfortunately I am not that familiar with setting up DHCP servers so I could not say exactly where to look, but I believe you need to modify your dhcpd.conf file so that the next-server value and possibly filename value are set correctly (I suspect your next-server is erroneously set to 0.0.0.0). Typically I have seen developers using routers for DHCP servers and I can say that I have seen this sort of thing happen with some routers where the TFTP server gets corrupted, the solution in those cases was to use static IPs or another router, but since you have the DHCP server on your host PC you can probably modify the configuration to fix this.

  • Thank you! The problem has sloved.

  • How did you solve your DHCP problem?
