I thought it was pretty strange too. How ever I am using that very same laptop that would not boot in our lab wFC5 on my 4.4.1 install at home. I have some other machines I want to try out. I'll send the in what you asked for tommorow. Heres one last thing I just thought of. I installed the server on a Dell 670 64 bit workstation. The processors are dual EMT 64 back from last April or so. Maybe the arch is throwing something off because I installed the 32 bit version of FC5 Jack <div>On 3/14/06, Eric Harrison <<a href="mailto:eharrison@mail.mesd.k12.or.us">eharrison@mail.mesd.k12.or.us</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Tue, 14 Mar 2006, Jack Palmadesso wrote: > I've installed 4.4.1 and booted the laptop terminal via PXE that would not > boot on FC5. > > On the FC5 install the message on the screen of the terminal is: > > trying to boot from: > > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C0A800 > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C0A80 > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C0A8 > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C0A > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C0 > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/C > pxe/pxelinux.cfg/default > > Then it stops > > Jack Now that is wacky, I can't figure out a way to replicate that exact output. Can you run this command: rpm -V ltsp_i386-kernel and post any output? Other things to try: Have you tried more than one terminal? Preferably a different make/model of terminal, just in case it is a problem with one specific make/model. Is it possible to copy "/tftpboot/lts/pxe/pxelinux.0" from the K12LTSP 4.4.2 install to /tftpboot/lts/pxe/pxelinux.0 on the FC5 test install? -Eric > On 3/14/06, Jack Palmadesso <<a href="mailto:jack.palmadesso@gmail.com"> jack.palmadesso@gmail.com</a>> wrote: >> >> I've installed this on a old Dell 530 and it seemed to go fine but it >> would not boot.
