I got a Naomi that I'm trying to use as a netdimm. I'm using transfer game on my PC and I can ping the Naomi. Transfergame doesn't work and the Naomi boots to checking network instead of gateway not found.

Any suggestions?
 
What's the ide bus? I have jumpers set I believe to netboot

Jumpers look correct.

Could try swapping the cable. I've seen people say crossover cable worked, but for me it wouldn't and only a standard cable worked.

Crossover should work fine for a direct connection from the computer to the dimm, but modern interfaces can generally auto negotiate with a normal cable.
 
This is the error I'm getting via Transfergame.exe
what it says there in japanese, is that you have problems with the ip address, you can't establish the connection with that ip address, so you tried to use another ip address. I recommend you follow this Gurudumps guide, it helped me a lot before using a rapsberry

I generally use the IP address in the dimm 192.168.1.2 with a mask of 255.255.255.0, it works great for me.
