Does anyone else have problems with the new default tftp block size of 1468 (set in tftp.c) being too large? I was getting corruption of the d/led images until I dropped it down to 1200. I'm afraid I don't have time to determine the real maximum size before corruption occurs. Does someone else want to look into this?

The block size of 1468 assumes that your network can handle an MTU size of 1500 bytes, which most can by default. Is there a chance that somebody's using PPPoE or VPN software or something like that that would require a reduction of MTU size?
If I were you, the next thing I'd do would be to sniff the transactions using Wireshark. It's a fantastic tool that will quickly help you decide where to focus your efforts.
