Your message is indicating that your server is 192.168.4.1 and the file you are trying to get is /tftpboot/u-boot.bin so do the following (I'm typing this from memory, so it may not be quite right)... $ tftp 192.168.4.1 tftp> get /tftpboot/u-boot.bin Getting TFTP to work (i.e. properly configured) usually solves the problem in my experience. gvb
