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.

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

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

Hello, I hope this doesn't bounce again... I'm having trouble passing control of the PXE process from PXELINUX to the FreeBSD "pxeboot" program. I tried invoking "pxeboot" from the PXELINUX "boot:" prompt. This causes an error "Invalid or corrupt kernel image." I named pxeboot "pxeboot.0" and tried invoking pxeboot.0 from the

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 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 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

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 everybody, I am using pxelinux to install centos stream 9 systems but this stopped working a while ago with mirror.stream.centos.org because it started forcing HTTPS and pxelinux is HTTP only. Could we please make the mirror.stream.centos.org HTTP available again please? $ wget http://mirror.stream.centos.org/9-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz --max-redirect=0

I am having a problem with setting up diskless clients under CentOS 5.2. I have everything working under CentOS 4.7. This is an adaptation of the (somewhat old) Diskless Linux with PXE HOWTO by Gerd v. Egidy, originally at the URL http://www.intra2net.com/opensource/diskless-howto/, which is now defunt (there is a mirror of it at http://blog.chinaunix.net/u/2389/showart_82438.html). What I am

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,

Hi Brock, I'm trying set full duplex on a server that is being pxeboot/provisioned via autoyast. We want to ensure the duplex is full DURING the autoyast provisioning itself. I've played the syslinux configs to specify the bcm5600 driver, but was having trouble with setting the network options. I've tryed appending them as well, but nothing on the internet seems to indicate that

I have a number of machines which PXE boot using the images provided by CentOS here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/images/pxeboot/ That gives the machines kernel 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64. I would like to move to a newer kernel as I'm seeing a serious I/O problem which I suspect is a kernel bug. I thought that would be as easy as grabbing the files from here:

Hey CentOS list! I've got an oddity with a diskless client setup that I suspect is the result of the initrd.img I'm using, or some parameter I'm unaware -- or I need to build my own initrd image (and could use some assistance on what has to be done in that department) Testbed is defined as: VM A: ip: 192.168.250.10 with dhcp server, tftp server, nfs server VM B: pxeboot VM,
