Re: [microblaze-uclinux] image.bin, download.bit



Hello John,

Thanks for the reply.

The tftp was working fine when I installed a tftp server on an NT 
machine. There is something wrong with tftp in Mandrake. We did the same 
things which you did in Red Hat but, it was not working right even after 
that. 

Looks like the problem with ftp is something different from the one in 
tftp. I still can't get that to work.

Rahul.
