DHCP and e1000

[Andreas Klein]

Hello

As far as i can see there is no Problem with your TFTP Server.

The Kernel Image is send to the FAI Client.
Usually this means the System is booting.

This Messages are send by the linux kernel. It says that it cannot find
a dhcp Server. Maybe the linux core is using the wrong card. Did you
try to plug a network cable in every network card the thing has?
