+====== TFTP Server ======
-The default TFTP suite is tftp-hpa. To install the following step is needed:
+===== Ubuntu 14.04/16.04 x86 in vmware player =====
-<code bash>
+First you have to install xinetd tftp
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp
+<code>
+sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp
 </code>
-The TFTP default directory is /var/lib/tftpboot. For convinience the following changes can be applied to the system:
-  * Creation of a new directory for the server
+create the file **/etc/xinetd.d/tftp** and add the following lines of code to it:
-  * setting the ownership for the tftp user
-  * add user to the tftp group to have rights to the tftpd dirctory
-<code bash>
+<code>
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo mkdir -p /srv/tftpd
+service tftp
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo chown tftp:tftp /srv/tftpd
+{
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo chmod 775 /srv/tftpd
+protocol        = udp
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo usermod -a -G tftp user
+port            = 69
+socket_type     = dgram
+wait            = yes
+user            = nobody
+server          = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
+server_args     = /tftpboot
+disable         = no
+}
 </code>
-Finally the server configuration for the TFTP server has to be changed:
+Then create a tftp folder and restart xinetd.
+<code>
+sudo mkdir /tftpboot
+sudo chmod -R 777 /tftpboot
+sudo chown -R nobody /tftpboot
+sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
+</code>
+===== Ubuntu 12.04 x86 in vmware player =====
+The default TFTP suite is tftp-hpa. To install the following step is needed:
 <code bash>
-user@ubuntu:~$ sudo nano /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
+user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install tftpd-hpa tftp-hpa
 </code>
-Change the following line to point to the new created directory:
+The TFTP default directory is /var/lib/tftpboot.
+Change the following line in ''/etc/default/tftpd-hpa'' to point to the images directory of the BSP:
 <code>
-TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftpd"
+TFTP_DIRECTORY="/home/tq/workspace/TQMa6x-BSP-REV.0104/platform-MBa6x/images"
