<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I see a similar problem to the one described in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>"Re: U-Boot DHCP request does not time out."</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>with U-Boot 1.1.1.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>But I have not seen any patch from Pantelis.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The only related message is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>"[PATCH] fix dhcp command retry" from Roger Blofeld</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Does that patch fix the problem?</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>In my case I think the counter restarts at 1 but the reboot</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>BOOTP does not work. If I interrupt (CTRL-C) and issue</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>a 'reset' the BOOTP broad cast after reset works.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>How to reproduce:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>* Power on -> BOOTP boot into Linux</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>* In Linux issue 'reboot' command</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>* Warm booted U-BOOT runs into this problem.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2> - - -</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>* U-BOOT CTRL-C and 'reset' -> BOOTP boot into Linux</FONT>
