Subject: Install help please

Well I've now figured out how to write /lib/ndb. I saw
the line in the book about disk/kfscmd allow. However
I'm not having any luck getting my PC to function as a
bootp server so that my other PC (and eventually my Sparc2)
can boot via the net off it. My PC with Plan9 doesn't seem
to be set up right with respect to networking (I can't
telnet from it for example). I've edited the /lib/ndb/local
file by removing all the lines that were in there as an example
and adding my entry with
ip= ether= sys=
dom=
proto=il (I tried proto=tcp)
I've put in entries for ipmask= and ipgw= and bootf=/386/9pc
(do I need the bootf= line for the install server?)
Anyone have any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?
(For the bootp server, I have started ip/bootpd and ip/tftpd)
When the system starts it says something to the effect of ipconfig...
bootp....interrupted. Hope that's okay.
Thanks,
Jeff
