All seems ok  but a file that is downloaded : term06.default.loads (I understand that is for 7906 model) instead of term11.default.loads (I understand that is for 7911 model). In any case the phone reboots well.

I don't have this file in the server and it tries to download every few seconds whitout asking another file. According to what I have read this file shouldn't be neccesary and, when the phone cann't obtain it, the phone should ask SEP<mac>.xml.cnf. I don't know if I'm doing something bad or if it could be a issue of the firmware version.

It was a TFTP server issue. The classical TFTP server used in the unix
world responds to queries with bad error codes. I finally
used aTFTPD that does this well so the phone understands that there's no
CTLSEP file and then asks for SEP file.
