This very much depends on your TFTP server. Most are restricted
to a particular directory [tree] for security reasons, so you aren't
allowed to use a whole path name. For example, on Red Hat (Fedora)
systems, TFTP can only serve from the /tftpboot directory and that
is implied in the path name, so the RedBoot command:
RedBoot> lo dir/file.test
would come from /tftpboot/dir/file.test
You'll need to check the documentation on your TFTP server setup
for the exact details.
