similar to: PXELINUX v. bpbatch

Can someone tell me what is supposed to go into pxelinux.cfg/default ? I get the intial transfer of pxelinux.0 to the client and I'm not really sure what is supposed to happen next.. I get an error msg about TFTP server does not support the tsize option, but that may be simply because the corret file isn't there to be transferred. Can I download the correct file from anywhere? I

Hi Aaron, i know it is not an interactive menu - but in my 'config' file i call for a textfile to be displayed : DISPLAY menu.txt that contains all my labels. See the first part of my 'config' : label 0 LOCALBOOT 0 label 1 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND initrd=images/w2k/unatt.ima label 2 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND

sorry - i must have overlooked the part where you mentioned that.. my fault. What software are you looking at ? Altiris maybe ? I am, ofcourse interested in the option you are looking for. Please keep this list updated.

I have an image of a dos floppy that loads the undi driver from 3com and mounts an smb share. This works great with pxelinux(from syslinux) and memdisk I need to make it work with pxegrub so we can use menus. (or figure out a menu system for pxelinux) With pxegrub I use memdisk as the kernel and load the dos image as a ramdisk. The undi driver loads and doesn't complain but, the network is

I just wanted to chime in and mention that I'm running into the problem with getting a "Non-system disk..." error on a system using a USB floppy when the floppy is not attached when I try to boot the system over the network using memdisk to boot a floppy image. Its actually fairly important to be able to do this, as the architecture of the hardware that I'm working with utilizes

Greetings: [ First, apologies if this has been discussed before. I looked through about the last year's worth of archives, but couldn't find a "Search feature", so I used the visual grep method, which is not foolproof. I also tried to download the full text of the archives to use the real grep, but I got an error loading it... ] I'm working on setting up the Xen virtual

Hello, I am attempting a PXE boot between two systems, each with multiple network cards. While there are a total of 8 ports on each computer, only two (each) are connected as follows: Boot Server eth0 - 10GbE fiber channel (private to the set of computers being managed) (Qlogic) eth4 - 1Gb ethernet (public and out of my sphere of management) (NetExtreme II)

Hi, We have been using PXELinux 2.0 for a few weeks now. So far so good, but recently we found out that newer 3com network cards with PXE2.2 wont boot. When flash these cards with an older PXE2.0 than everything works okay. Anyone else having this problem? Vincent

I'm reading the docs accompanying SYSLINUX where it says:- ++++ CREATING A BOOTABLE LINUX FLOPPY +++ In order to create a bootable Linux floppy using SYSLINUX, prepare a normal MS-DOS formatted floppy. Copy one or more Linux kernel files to it, then execute the DOS command: syslinux [-s] a: Now before I run this program, I'd like to know which 'one or more Linux

Once upon a time, Steven Tardy <sjt5atra at gmail.com> said: > The ?ICMP unreachable? should be a dead giveaway. . . You cut out the part of the email where the OP said that the UEFI system was ignoring the next-server part of the DHCP reply and trying to TFTP to the DHCP server instead of the TFTP server. Of course that got ICMP unreachable, but it isn't a firewall problem. To the

Yes, you are missing these options in the DHCP server: 66 'Boot Server Host Name' (the tftp server IP) 67 'Bootfile Name' (pxelinux.0) -----Original Message----- From: Pierre VIALLET [mailto:pvt at auvitran.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 10:18 AM To: syslinux at zytor.com Subject: [syslinux] PXE boot from Windows XP Hi, I want to boot a VIA EPIA Motherboard from a

is token ring supported by pxelinux or only ethernet?

I'm trying to boot linux on a VIA EPIA-M board (a Nehemiah-based M10000), and I'm having some trouble with it. I'm watching the network transactions with ethereal, and I'm seeing a failure at what appears to be the tftp stage. The M10000 picks up its IP address from the dhcp server (ISC DHCP3), and reports it correctly on the screen. Then the tftp session starts, and I get the

DHCP seems to be working properly - returning the correct boot file for the architecture of the PXE client, but when I try to boot syslinux.efi, it gets the file then keeps requesting ldinux.e64 over and over again. The file is there and available. A wireshark trace shows it keeps requesting the file, followed by the server responding to the blksize and tsize options, but then the client just

I've been trying to make up for a mismatch in functionality between bpbatch and pxelinux by trying to use both depending what I'm trying to do by chain booting the two. I'm able to chain boot in either direction, either pxelinux then bpbatch or bpbatch then pxelinux, but once I've done this, and boot either Linux or DOS, I find the adapter I used to network boot is not detected by

I'm trying to move off of bpbatch and on to pxelinux (bpbatch doesn't boot the installation kernels for SuSE 8.1 and SLES 8--they appear to be too big). This has been a pretty easy transition, except for the fact that I'm using bpbatch to install Windows 2000 over the network as well as Linux. For Windows 2000 I use a DOS boot diskette with network drivers and run the 16-bit WINNT.EXE
