Are these two machines connected to the same network switch ? i have dhcp problems in my kickstart too but it depends on which network switch the machine is connected ... i've asked the network admin guy to have a look at the port configuration (using cisco switches) because if i use another switch (or connect the same machine on a simple 3com hub linked behind a cisco one) the kickstart is ok ... I suppose it's the same problem ... FYI i have this problem with a IBM x306m with broadcom nic inside ...

I'ts hardware related. I have two supposedly similar machines from the same order. One kicks fine and not the other. BIOS setting is the same on both servers. This is strange.
anyway, thanks for all the responses.

Googling for "in.tftpd tftp: client does not accept options" returns lots of results which imply this is pretty typical when Kickstarting systems and doesn't prevent the boot/install process from working. And lots of stuff about Broadcom interfaces in particular.
That's how I'm kicking. Again, this profile works fine on a different machine. I'm thinking that it's hardware related.
Have you tried completely disabling one of the interfaces in the BIOS to see if this gets you any further?
