I am not sure and did not look it up, but could it be that support for the filesystem type of your root partition is not included in the Linux kernel?
Bests,

This is possible, I am using on that machine Reiserfs3, not the most normal FS.
I am not sure anymore which kernel is used by the TFTP-client, but normally I use an initrd (what is default in Debian).
In my normal kernel config file I see: CONFIG_REISERFS_FS=m This is a standard-Debian-kernel, 2.6.26.2. Ext3 is a module too.
With regards, Paul van der Vlis.
