Re: ARP interfering with Etherboot TFTP?

Same hardware setup using the Broadcom NIC.  Linux server running
atftpd (0.7-7).  Client running PXE / Etherboot-5.4.1.  Trace output
below.

This suggests to me that the problem is likely to be with the client
end.  I have a fair degree of confidence that atftpd will correctly
process TFTP.

Any suggestions on how to try to isolate the problem to either
Etherboot or the Broadcom UNDI implementation?
