[U-Boot] kernel does not boot

[U-Boot] kernel does not boot

[Mehmet Salih YILDIRIM]

  I am using TI's davinci board (microprocessor is dm6446) and I both 
tried community u-boot build and I compiled myself. I try to boot kernel 
from tftp and fs from nfs but I cannot mount fs. Here is errors:

Seems your DHCP server is muisconfigured.

This is a Linux problem, not an U-Boot issue.

You are off topic here.
