the output is exactly the same on both machines! On the one machine that
went through (because it got the IP first) I got the output from dmesg,
printed it and compared it to the both boot screens. And they are really
identical.

I didn't see any option (or "extension") that contains the mac address.
Could that be the problem? Do I have to tell the server that the mac
address must be in the request-list?

Frank
