Hi

 The TFTP application expects files to be located in the /tftpboot
directory. From what I see from your dhcp.conf who have placed the
dongle.bin.mvpmc in the root directory which is not the default
location. And make sure you use the correct permission.
filename                "/dongle.bin.mvpmc";

And you have not put in the MAC addresse for your mediamvp box into
the dhcp.conf file. Look into the mediamvp howto again or check this
out

host mvp { # NOTE: Change the hardware ethernet to the MAC address of
your actual MVP
           hardware ethernet 00:0d:fe:00:a2:ab;
           fixed-address 192.168.10.57;
           filename "dongle.bin.mvpmc";
           option root-path "/home/mvp,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,nolock";
