I downloaded nilo and oskit from www.nilo.org.
Added pcnet32.c linux-2.0.39 driver to oskit.
Compiled nilo with pcnet32 and produced boot floppy image.
Use it inside vmware vm. My aim is to be able to test pxelinux using
vmware+nilo and not a real machine.
Floppy starts, detects nic, receives ip from dhcp server, requests boot
image to tftpd-hpa, then crashes when talking to tftp. Is "Unknown TFTP
packet type 0x53ff" a kind of packet I can block using tftp-hpa -r option,
or it it nilo that is broken and there's nothing to do?
Unfortunately I cannot test the nilo boot disk on a real pc, because the
ones I have carry recent pci nic's that requires becker latest drivers
(oskit is 2.0.x based); I tried patching oskit with them, but when the
floppy boots it stops very early when detecting the nics (loops forever); I
think this has to do with the new becker pci-scan.o stuff that oskit does
not know and I somehow forced it to "know".
Did anyone used nilo succesfully with tftp-hpa?
Thanks

Maybe this sheds some light on it.

So there's no option acknowledgement, since no option was requested. Since the 'netascii' packets tend to be bigger than the 'octet' packets I think this stumbles over some packet != 512 Bytes data, and it seems to be the first one ... Try to patch formats[] in tftpd.c, so that the last entry in each element is '0'. This should give: :} formats[] = { : {"netascii", [...] ,tftp_recvfile, 0 }, : {"octet" , [...], 0}, This disables CR/LF conversion even if 'netascii' is requested. Maybe this brings you some step further, but since this client is definitely broken there may be more trouble elsewhere.
