I am trying to boot my new board using uBoot, dhcp, and tftp. I’ve got MAC addresses set and I see the board on the network and I see it issue a DCHP DISCOVER message and my server responds with the appropriate DHCP Offer message, but I never see the DHCP Request come out of the board. Marvell\>\> dhcp mvpp2-1 Waiting for PHY auto negotiation to complete… done BOOTP broadcast 1 BOOTP broadcast 2 BOOTP broadcast 3 The text below is from a WireShark capture on the network. This is a direct connection from the server to the board using two network cables and a simple 1G Ethernet switch. Another board from a different vendor boots just fine. I see the Discover/Offer/Request/Ack sequence and then the board starts booting. What am I missing?
