Hi,

 

I'm trying to get a 4801 to PXE boot. 

 

I'm using a PXE setup on linux, dhcpd + tftpd server that I know work, I've
used it to install other computers with this setup. 

 

But when I boot the 4801, it gets the information from the dhcp server
correctly, but when it requests the boot image from the tftp server it
requests a filename that is different from the one supplied in the
dhcpd.conf file, and the difference is that it attached the string "M-^?"
(without quotes) to the string, effectively asking fro an non existing file.
Now, I did try to rename the file so that it would match, but to no luck. 

 

Anybody experienced this, and did you find a fix?
