[Forgot to send the answer to the list as well]
It is world-readable. The problem is that there's no attempt to fetch
the kernel via tftp at all. 3 bootp requests, three replys. This indicates
that the Indigo doesn't like the reply or that the box thinks that it
is the "wrong answer"... So I think there's something wrong with my
bootptab setup:
SGIIndogo:bf=vmlinux:\
:td=/tftpboot:\
:hd=/tftpboot:\
:ht=ethernet:\
:sm=255.255.255.0:\
:ha=08006906BA2E:\
:ip=192.168.1.3
