I test the following configuration :
Server : 712/60 with bootpd, HPUX 10.20, IP address 147.215.1.38
Linux workstation : 712/60, IP address 147.215.1.38
I use bootptab file like this :

mkhppa01:\
    ht=ethernet:\
    hd=/tftpboot:\
    bf=Image2:\
    ha=0800096dc1ec:\
    sm=255.255.255.0:\
    gw=147.215.1.1:\
    ds=147.215.1.4:\
    ip=147.215.1.37

I try to boot with any Image by typing : boot lan.147.215.1.38

syslog.log give me :
---- bootpd[5757] : bootsize=1396736 hp->bootsize=1396736
But nothing happens.
