You must be a glutton for punishment ;-)

I don't understand why you have to change the IP address of your PC. Just update

the u-boot environment variable 'serverip'. Regardless, if you want to add a tftp

server to u-boot, please feel free to do so.

However, I would recommend you simply run a dhcp/bootp server and let

u-boot download the image automatically (or via autoboot script). If you're using

Linux, you can use the standard dhcpd/tftpd. If you're using windoze I

recommend tftpd32:
