i think that should be should be (indent for clarity)
bootfile=ether0!$mydhcpserver!/386/9pccpu.gz
nobootprompt=tcp
otherwise i believe you will be prompted on the
console for a root fs.
also, you would be much better off creating a ipnet
entry in ndb. i have a dim recollection of having trouble
when this was set up incorrectly, causing cs confusion.
setting the ipnet stuff allows the fs ip addr to be
inferred.
in your case, you want entries something like this:
ipnet=mynet ip=192.168.1.0 ipmask=/120
fs=myfs.example.net
ipgw=192.168.1.?
gw=mygw.example.net
dns=192.168.1.40
dnsdomain=example.net
authdom=myauthdom
auth=myfs
cpu=myfs
sys=mygw ip=192.168.1.? ether=000102030405
dom=mygw.example.net
sys=myfs ip=192.168.1.40 ether=000102030405
dom=myfs.example.net
sys=cpu-003 ip=192.168.1.33 ether=000102030405
dom=cpu-003.example.net
bootf=/386/9pxeload
