Hi all,
I have set up a tftp server to serve my pxe netboot files of Ubuntu 7.04 so that I can network install the OS to multiple machines. I can boot the client machines and can see the ubuntu installer starting. But when i come to choose the ubuntu mirror and i give the ip address of my local web server and the installatio source directory ( I have copied the contents of the cd into a directory under the document root of apache ) the installation displays a Cannot download a file from server error and the installation stops...for the life of me i cant figure out what could be wrong. I have no problems doing an install directly from the cd.

Please any help will be appreciated,

thanks
