similar to: run FreeBSD "pxeboot" from pxelinux.0?

Hello... In the split-second before the reboot, I can see that the pxeboot.0 process is indeed started-- pxeboot gets out just over 2 lines of text before the reboot occurs. So it's not a "ready" message. The text in question is (without *'s): ****************************************** PXE Loader 1.00 Building the boot loader arguments Relocating the loader and the

Hi all, I've searched the depths of the resources on the internet; however I'm having trouble deploying a pxeboot solution via pxelinux. So far what I have successfully implemented in my infrastructure is a successful pxeboot setup for FreeBSD ( without the use of pxelinux ). I'd ultimately like to have a solution that will allow me to choose a network install of various Unix-like

Hi Folks, I have configured pxelinux.0 to allow chain-booting freebsd pxeboot.0 from it like this: label fbsdpxe KERNEL pxeboot.0 This works as expected, so no issue with that. There's one weird thing however. If I rename pxeboot.0 to pxeboot (omitting .0) and change the config file accordingly it throws this error at me: Invalid or corrupt kernel image. Same happens if I

Hi again... The text under "BTX loader..." should appear as a block where each line is 56 characters long. "BTX halted" is on its own line.

The stack dump message is white text on black background. Right above the stack dump message, still in yellow-on-blue from the PXELINUX settings, is the text: Building the boot loader arguments Relocating the loader and the BTX Starting the BTX loader <change to white-on-black> BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 <stack dump> Would that business of "arguments...

Hello... I have PXELINUX working nicely on FreeBSD, but I have exactly zero experience with Windows Server. What I would like to do is: Have PXE client connect to Windows DHCP server to get value "filename pxelinux.0" Have PXE client connect to Windows TFTP server to download pxelinux.0, display, pxelinux.cfg/default, memdisk, and appropriate initrd files (really bootable floppy

Attempting to PXE boot from the BaseOS/x86_64/kickstart/images/pxeboot/ files results in repeating messages Invalid or corrupt kernel image eventually changing to Could not find kernel image: centos8.2.x86_64/vmlinuz I downloaded the files again, from a different mirror, and they are all the same. Wiped the files and recreated /tftpboot/linux-install/centos8.2.x86_64/. No dice. First mirror

Hello... With syslinux pre7, I am consistently getting what looks like a stack dump out of the FreeBSD loader. I have seen this behavior from pxeboot before. Maybe once out of every fifty or so runs of pxeboot, I would see an error message like the one below, but it was both rare and inconsistent. Now I am getting this message every time pxelinux invokes pxeboot: BTX loader 1.00 BTX

Hi all, Well I''ve managed to waste a day on this. Posted a similar message earlier today on the fedora list and got no nibbles. I read every article in the archives regarding pxebooting; there is no mention of it in the wiki. I have a box with two kernels, a standard fedora 6 and a xen fedora 6. Both boot fine. I''ve setup another server with dhcp and tftpboot and can now

Has anyone succeeded in installing CentOS-6.0 by PXEboot. If so, would you say how you did it, please. I tried (on an HP MicroServer), but gave up in the end and used a USB stick installation instead. But I'd be very interested to know how to do it, for the future. Unfortunately I didn't keep a proper note of my PXEboot attempt, but IIRC the problem was that install.img was not found,

I am using pxeboot (syslinux) 1.75 and I'm attempting to boot diskless with the pxeboot.0 system. The system boots, downloads the pxeboot.0, the kernel and then the screen turns to garbage. Does anyone know what this is/how to fix this? Thanks. -- Paul Slinski System Administrator Global IQX http://www.globaliqx.com/ pauls at globaliqx.com

Hello... Last week I demonstrated a problem with PXELINUX's ability to launch the FreeBSD "pxeboot" program. Mr. Anvin suggests that this can be fixed. I'm glad, because this PXELINUX/pxeboot problem is the very last technical issue for a project on which I've been working since September. My company has a proprietary disk-imaging system that they would like to replace.

Hi Peter et al, Just wanted to let you know my heartfelt appretiation of what you and the other devs have done in integrating gpxe and pxelinux... it works wonderfully well for me... I simply swapped my pxelinux.0 for my gpxelinux.0 and modified my pxelinux.cfg/default to use urls to refer to the kernel and initial ram disk images and it worked perfectly (dns resolution and all). This is a huge
