I have this problem too, and thus have not yet gotten my diskless
station to boot.

Right, it is after grub has already successfully boot strapped the
kernel.

My question is what should the setup be? I have the various howtos (3
of them from linuxdoc.org, have also read some other diskless
workstation docs) but can't figure out what the problem is. I even
completely opened up iptables, but still get the error above. I think
I've also seen error code 111 sometimes.
