→How to configure a TFTP Server
===Introduction===
Especially during the developmentphase, you would like to be able to have full control over the target systemboot process. This section describes how to configure your host system for this purpose.
==== How to configure a TFTP Server ====
* For '''Debian/Ubuntu 8.x''':
** download the atftp ''atftpd'' package with the preferred method. For example, run sudo apt-get install atftpatftpd** edit the /etc/default/atftp atftpd and change the USE_INETD to false
** create the tftp root directory: sudo mkdir /tftpboot
** assign the permission: sudo chmod -R 777 /tftpboot and sudo chown -R nobody /tftpboot
** start the server: sudo /etc/init.d/atftpd start
To change the tftp root directory, user should edit the /etc/default/atftp atftpd file. Please note that, beside ''atftpd'', there are other software packages providing a tftp server, e.g. '''tftpd-hpa''' and '''tftpd'''.
