UBOOT: Retry count exceeded; starting again

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi,

I have an issue with uboot. When I run netboot, I get the following message: "Retry count exceeded; starting again". Below is a snippet from the console. As we can see the transfer starts but then the message appears.

We can observe that the file is being transferred, but then the message appears. I have a machine connected to a router and the Mini-ITX board connected to the router. The router is connected at 100Mps for both devices (it is an older router). The environment variables of uboot is set to the default, with the exception of the serverip to match that of my machine.

"
U-Boot-PetaLinux> run netboot

Can anyone shine some light on this issue?

Thanks.

    The issue was the kernel version 4.4.xx for Ubuntu 14.04. Thank you.
