Re: tftp on ppcboot 1.1.5

Following is different in my case (8260ADS board):
- Load address is 0x500000 (this may not be a problem)
- ethaddr is 00:11:22:33:44:55 (this prevented tftp in my case
   with similar symptoms as you describe if I used
   a1:b2:c3:d4:e5:c6, and I dont know why, and could
   be the problem in your case)
- tftp server has full path in inetd.conf; i.e. in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
  and then use tftp 0x500000 /tftpboot/testfile (this may not
  be a problem)
- Another possibility (as in my case of another similar board),
  the board was not setup properly in start.S.

I want to use tftp to download file into target machine,but always failed.
The tftp server on linux has already been setup and tested, I tftp a file
successfully by using other tftp client on windows.

Following is my environment and operation log, and I found the ip/udp
datagram on network really is 0.0.0.69->192.168.1.105,so nobody will answer
to the tftp request. Why the ip address of server is changed from
192.168.1.105 to 0.0.0.69 ? Are there something I leave.
