Some info for the docs, when I was troubleshooting a Ubuntu 9.04 install. ====== It appears that some tftp servers (the older BSD version, Debian's "tftpd") doesn't support RFC 2348 (blksize), and always use a block size of 512 :( You need to make sure that you install the the Peter Anvin version, which does support RFC 2348, and blksize up to 65,464 bytes (Debian's "tftpd-hpa"). http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/tftp/ How to tell which you have? Check your man page: "man tftpd" or ask for the version: Peter Anvin version: rg...@imhotep:~> /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -V tftp-hpa 0.48, with remap, with tcpwrappers rg...@imhotep:~> non-RFC 2348 one: rg...@imhotep:~> /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -V rg...@imhotep:~> Even when using the Peter Anvin version, block size can still be reduced via two methods: -B : limits the maximum permitted block size (-B 512) -r : rejects RFC 2347 TFTP options (-r blksize) Check your local /etc/xinetd.d/tftp or /etc/inetd.conf file to see how your tftpd server is being invoked. =========== -Robin _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
