[mythtv-users] OT slightly - MediaMVP won't boot

[Paul Fine]

I also posted this question on the mvpmc forums, but I know that there 
are a few MediaMVP users watching this list, so I thought I might also 
try here for some advice.

I am trying to setup a MediaMVP that I picked up on clearance from 
RadioShack. It is a Model 86001 Rev D3A. 
 
I have a DHCP server running on my Fedora Core 4 Mythtv backend and the 
TFTP-server is running. I confirmed that both the DHCP server and the 
TFTP server are working by getting a lease from a PC, and using that PC 
to extract the dongle.bin.mvpmc file from the server via TFTP. 
 
When I power up the MediaMVP, I see the DHCPDISCOVER and DHCPOFFER 
messages (using tcpdump), and then I see an RRQ message from the 
MediaMVP requesting the dongle.bin.mvpmc file. 
 
What I do not see is any acknowledgement of data received by the 
MediaMVP after this point. My server keeps sending 516 byte packets 
while getting no response. At some point, the DHCPDISCOVER and DHCPOFFER 
messages come across again.  I am at work right now, so I can't post the 
logs and tcpdump output.
 
Any ideas/suggestions?
