Hi,

I can't get a Soekris net4801 box to boot Plan 9 via PXE.

On my Plan 9 fileserver (which also runs ip/dhcpd and ip/tftpd), I
created /cfg/pxe/<MAC of the first interface on the net4801>, which is
almost identical to the file I use for a diskless terminal. The only
differences are that I put mouseport, monitor and vgasize in
comment. The remaining things, bootfile and nobootprompt are the same
as for the terminal. I first tried to boot /386/9pc.gz and then
/386/9pccpu.gz (see below). I also added *nomp=1 but that doesn't seem
to get it any further. The console output looks as follows:

--- begin ---

---  end  ---

Any idea what might be wrong?


Kind regards,
