I am not familiar with the DHCP server in the tftp32 program (we use the
DHCP server that ships as part of 2k) but it seems that you are trying to
boot the clients using the etherboot process, not PXE.  If this is the case
you need to use the .nbi file not the .0 file as the boot file.
 
Hope this helps
Wayne

 Dear friends,
 
We are trying to create diskless network based on windows 2000 advanced
server. In these efforts we have visited to etherboot.org and
pxes.sourceforge.net . We have downloaded required com file for rtl8139
(NIC) from etherbot.org . Then we have downloaded Tftpd32 version 2.62 by
Jounin. We have gone through documentations and followed all the
configurations and settings as per documentations on pxes.sourceforge.net .
In addition to this we have downloaded nbi and tftp files from pxes site.
Still we are getting an error at the client :
 
Loading 200.13.13.5:pxelinux.0 ...error: not a valid image
Unable to load file.
 
We have attached two screenshots of the configurations and TFTPServer log
entries for your referance.

As a response Diego Torres Milano he told us that the image might be corrupt
if it is so can anyone please suggest us some tool which can create network
bootable image on windows 2000 (as alll of us are novoice in linux).
 
Or atleast tell us if there is any problem in our settings or configuration.

Friends kindly help us to achieve this.
 
Thanking you,
 Anoop Purohit,
