Net-Install Bootp errors
I am following Spinlock’s guide for network-installing IRIX and seem to have hit a wall. When running the following from the command prompt: 
Code:
bootp():i/30/ovl1/stand/sash64
I get an error that the file is not found on the server.

Here is what the server sees:
Code:
Apr 20 08:34:09 irixinstall bootpd[1068]: read 1 entries (1 hosts) from "/etc/bootptab"
Apr 20 08:34:09 irixinstall bootpd[1068]: recvd pkt from IP addr 192.168.11.200

I checked to make sure the file was indeed where I was asking for it from:
Code:
sgi@irixinstall:/srv/tftp/i/30/ovl1/stand$ ls -lha
total 3.7M
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4.0K Oct 14  2018 .
drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4.0K Oct 14  2018 ..

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 261K Feb 21  2011 sash64
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 336K Feb 21  2011 sashARCS
I followed everything else from the guide exactly I believe. Here is my bootptab and inetd.conf:
Code:
octane:ip=192.168.11.200

Code:
#:INTERNAL: Internal services
#discard                stream  tcp     nowait  root    internal
#discard                dgram   udp     wait    root    internal
#daytime                stream  tcp     nowait  root    internal
#time           stream  tcp     nowait  root    internal

#:STANDARD: These are standard services.

#:MAIL: Mail, news and uucp services.

#:INFO: Info services

#:BOOT: TFTP service is provided primarily for booting.  Most sites#       run this only on machines acting as "boot servers."
bootps          dgram   udp     wait    root    /usr/sbin/bootpd  bootpd -i -t 120 -d 4
tftp            dgram   udp     wait    nobody  /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /srv/tftp

#:RPC: RPC based services

#:HAM-RADIO: amateur-radio services

#:OTHER: Other services

Here is Spinlock’s guide for reference: http://techpubs.spinlocksolutions.com/ir...linux.html

Any ideas?
