Re: tftp error: Image file too large for low memory.

IIRC, the LanWorks boot ROM/flash (SMC8000, EEPro+) doesn't support PXE and
they only load into conventional (<640K) memory.

RedHat 6.0 3c905 with lanworks latest flash image
kernel to big for zImage use make bzImage
have not set up the nfsroot yet
mknbi-linux -x -k bzImage -o /tftpboot/bootImage
outputs
Kernal image file name = bzImage
Output file = bootImage
Kernel command line = "auto rw root=/dev/nfsroot=kernel nfsaddrs=kernel

if I run mknbi-linux with syntax errors I get magic number load records info
but not always and when I try to netboot I get this on the client

Node: 0060??????15
TFTP......
File transfer error: Image too large for low memory.
Error:
Network boot aborted.

Server messages file just says:
