Hi wd,
   Yeah, I've read relevant topics in DULG and then revised my 
configuration header file as following:

#define CONFIG_ETHADDR			00:50:c2:1e:af:fb
#define CONFIG_NETMASK			255.255.255.0
#define CONFIG_IPADDR			192.168.123.100
#define CONFIG_SERVERIP			192.168.123.115
#define CONFIG_BOOTFILE			"zImage"
#define CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND		"tftpboot\; go 0c480000"
#define CFG_LOAD_ADDR			0x0c480000

   I'm running Fedora Core 4 on my PC. I've got the tftp-server rpm 
installed, iptables turned off, tftp service enabled and xinetd 
restarted, zImage copied under the /tftpboot/ directory. But after 5 sec 
boot delay the TFTP seemed to time out like this:

TFTP from server 192.168.123.115; out IP is 192.168.123.100
Filename: 'zImage'
Load address: 0xc480000
Loading: T T # # T # T T (omitted)
Retry count exceeded; starting again

Then I interrupted the command and tried to ping my PC:

jx44b0>ping 192.168.123.115
host 192.168.123.115 is alive

I think the network condition is OK, but the TFTP always times out. I 
want to configure a longer timeout value for TFTP but don't know where. 
Waiting for your reply. Thanks a lot.

Best regards,
Zhen Wang
