Trouble installing ubuntu through netboot.

[jakupl]

I am installing ubuntu on an old computer that lacks a cd drive and is too old for usb boot, so I need netbooting. I have tried to follow this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet

But I keep getting:
TFTP ERROR: File not found
EXITING INTEL PXE ROM


I have attached a screenshot of how it looks before it exits.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Well, I've never used netboot, but you may have other options. What about just borrowing an optical drive? For most cases, removing/installing a CDrom drive takes only a few minutes.

You could even buy a non-functional desktop at a garage sale for $5 and just cannibalize a drive out of it.

I actually just did a netboot tonight, because i was too lazy to actually make a usb boot disk. i found this post to be helpful, and it worked! just make sure to use updated links.
