Hi, is there any way to simulate a PXE boot from an Etherboot ROM? Background: I am using PXES in a customer project. PXES supports bootsplash only via pxelinux. The customer machines only have old ISA network cards for which there appears to be no PXE boot rom so I have to use Etherboot. Maybe one could build an NBI image from pxelinux.0 somehow ??? Use a newer etherboot image as a second...

This may seem to be an odd request, but here it goes: I would like to be able to recursively load pxelinux. Simple reason being that many useful mini distro's now use it (PXES, Recovery is Possible, Fedora Anaconda, my own homebrew setup program, unattended.sf.net, etc), and I would like to be able have drop in upgradabily for those distro's. The idea being I can create a master menu and then point to and load the native menu for each of those distro's. I think...

Hi, I've been using pxe-enabled nic's with an lzpxe-etherboot image generated by rom-o-matic.net to boot a ltsp.org kernel, with dhcp 3 to use if statements to determine which filename option he gives to the pxe/etherboot dhcp client.Explained at http://www.ltsp.org/documentation/pxe.howto.html This works perfectly, except for the fact that you can't use 1 etherboot pxe image for

Dear Sir, I am using PXES for booting diskless computer to win2k, and/or LTSP servers. The problem is we have many computers in our lab have different computers, so i require different .initrd files for each group of computers. Can i have different /pxelinux.cfg/default files so that i can define different locations for...

Hi folks, There is probably a canned solution for this problem, but after some searching I can't find it. I currently run some stations booted over the network using pretty standard PXELINUX, boot kernel & initrd (squashed) images. The PXE-bootable images are thin client Linux (PXES, but could be anything like LTSP, ThinStation etc). However I will be installing some more at the end of DSL links, and don't want to do every boot from the network. Rather, I'd like the network option to remain for initial installation or in case the hard disk installation becomes corrup...

Hi I am an engineer who is making communication systems. I have a board(made by Kontron ltd, Intel CPU, currently with diskless ) that is used in compactPCI. I boot that board with network PXELINUX method and currently using NFS. But I don't want to use NFS and I want to make and use ram disk image. That means I want to use a ram disk as /. Currently I made a initrd by ltsp_initrd_kit. What

This is my first post to it, so please be gentle :-) I have several offices set up with RedHat and CentOS terminal servers. We are using CentOS 4.6 and RedHat 4.6 on them, GDM for the display manager, and PXES (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pxes/) for the boot image. Each terminal server is also the font server, dhcp server, tftp server, dns server, and provides a ldap slave from our master ldap server (at our corporate office) for user accounts and authentication. Everything has been working quit...

Hello, I appreciate the help. I am able to mount the nfs root share to a directory and then chroot to it and pull up a shell. Everything seems fully functional from there and I can run all the programs I checked. Wasn't sure how to manually test the init command. When I type /sbin/int it prints the proper format for an init command and when I type /sbin/init S, I just get a carriage return.
