Hi Everyone. is there a need to have on searching the configuration file the request for the "odd ip addresses" ? Let me explain: from /doc/pxelinux.txt : ... Next, it will search for the config file using its own IP address in upper case hexadecimal, e.g. 192.0.2.91 -> C000025B (you can use the included progam "gethostip" to compute the hexadecimal IP address for

I intend to release SYSLINUX 3.73-pre7 as SYSLINUX 3.73 as soon as possible. Please let me know if there are any outstanding bugs with 3.73-pre7 that either haven't been reported or I have forgotten about... it's been a while. -hpa

Dear all, I'd like to have a DHCP/PXE server for different arch of clients, i.e. BIOS, EFI32, and EFI64 clients. As described here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720589 What Daniel has proposed (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720589#10) should work, i.e. Using a file called pxelinux.cfg/bios containing the following 2 lines:

Hi! As documented: http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX When pxelinux "boots" it is looking for this: /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C00002 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0000 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000

Hello! I have some weird problem. I have pxelinux(3.10) configured fine. Os: FreeBsd 6.1, tftp-hpa 0.41, some version of dhcpd from ports. It worked before on another machine which's hd passed away and i lost my working example. Configured new computer as boot server... What happends is dhcp gives all the parameters to client(this server also works for giving addresses to workstations) -

Hi This is what I like to be able to do. 1. Computer boot on LAN, using PXELinux. 2. If the computer is booting for the first time it sends MAC adr, RAM, size of harddrive and name of videocard to a shared folder on a computer, maybe a server, that is attached to the network. 3. If this is not the first time it scan for a new task, could be a new ghostimage or an unattended installation of a

Hi! We use Windows tftp-servers (so I dont think switching now would be an alternative). But I can try to suggest it. More specific, vendor id of the mac address, is what I want to be able to "choose" (if match) which bootmenu to display. Like all broadcom NICs we have would boot the undionly.kpxe "menu!! (I am having some trouble with broadcom (PCI fiber) and iPXE :) And the

Folks, I'm having asterisk connect to another device via an E1 PRI. However, using "pri intense debug span 1" I'm seeing asterisk ONLY sending SABME packets. No packets are received. The other end is saying ISDN layer 2 is okay. Can this imply RX-errors where the other device is ack'ing the SABME's (and hence considers layer 2 established), while asterisk isn't

I'm having a problem with Roaming profiles in Windows XP with Samba as PDC. I've googled and trolled the mailing lists and read the Samba documentation. Problem: User logs onto domain from WinXP client and profile is downloaded (you can tell because it takes a long time and lights on hub are lit up). However, unless that user is in the admin group locally, all/some of the profile

Currently, the TFTP configuration file discovery process will request a set of files based on the UUID, MAC address, lease IP address and eventually fall back to "default": /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B [...] /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/default

Hi, Not sure if this is the right mailing list for this kind of question, but I am looking for a way to boot Linux/other OS from within Linux i.e. once I have booted into Linux may be using pxe or otherwise and then I decide to boot Windows from or Linux from localdisk, then instead of rebooting th machine can I somehow execute the boot sector/grub/ntldr etc from within Linux? Is this at all

Hi What did I start? <*shrug*> Well, well, well. First a little bit of history: I joined the LLVM project, because the ideas sounded very interesting to me and I voluntered for a minor patch for prefetch datasupport for the gcc-compiler. At that time, when I joined, the only possibility to develop on the windows platform was to use Cygwin Unix Windows emulation layer, but it had some

Hi all, I''ve got the beginning of win32-etc 0.2.0 checked into cvs. This includes a new sub-module called Admin that includes the add_user, delete_user, and change_password methods. I eventually will add a config_user method as well, plus whatever else I feel like tossing in. :) One issue I''m having is with the change_password - no matter what I try, I always get

Hello all, I understand that during PXE boot, it goes into the pxelinux.cfg and it states: 1. "it will search for the config file using its own IP address in upper case hexadecimal, e.g. 192.0.2.91 -> C000025B (you can use the included progam "gethostip" to compute the hexadecimal IP address for any host.) If that file is not found, it will remove one hex digit and try

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 my boot files. Thanks in advance. Limesh Parekh, Enjay Computer
