entria workstation gives "Not Owner" message boot failed

[David S. Bell]

I just loaded the enware 7.10 software to be able to use my old Xterms. The first problem I had was with the NIC failing with and auto 10/100 switch. I was able to DHCP but then got the message that the gateway was not responding. I got by this by setting the port to be 10 and adding a hub between the entria and the switch. Now when I try to boot It does the DHCP then I get "not owner" boot failed.

I couldn't find your exact error message, but here are a couple of links from the TKB that may help you.

make sure spanning tree option is off on the switch.. wouldn't be a cisco/procurve by any chance?

1. PANap19385 - B.07.11 always switches to the alternate file server
When both primary and alternate file-servers are
configured, the XTerm always downloads its code from
the alternate file server. 2. PANap19485 - Envizex and 10/100 networking
When booting through an auto-sensing 10/100 switch
(HP ProCurve 10/100 J3295A), the Envizex could no longer
download the binaries/config. from the server. Messages are displayed :
"No cable" "No etherTwist hub detected"
3. PANap19539 - Envizex connected to auto-sensing 10-100
switch fails booting
When booting through an auto-sensing 10/100 switch
(Allied Telesyn AT-FS708), the Envizex fails.

and I'd still alter the spanning tree option if applcable.
