similar to: PXE question

I was wondering, where is the format and options of files like /usr/share/system-config-netboot/pxelinux.cfg/default from system-config-netboot-cmd described? There are plenty of PXE tutorials with examples out there, but nothing that looks like actual documentation.

Folks, Are there updated instructions on how to set up PXE boot under CentOS 5.x? I found that the system-config-netboot RPM has been absent, and the instructions written reference it, with a bug report not yet closed on Red Hat.

Hi everybody, I'm a french student employed to develop the boot loader of some commercial kernel (real time one). Since the goal is to have a universal x86 netboot I had to use PXE apis. However I have troubles using them. Since our kernel is not GPL based I can't just patch syslinux for our purpose. I tryed to make a very simple netboot loader using intel doc but I was not able to

Hi all, I have just been informed that Netboot (http://netboot.sourceforge.net/) can be used to produce PXE boot ROMs. I wonder if anyone has tried running this combination with PXELINUX? This is obviously a really big deal... :) -hpa

Hi, I have been using pxelinux for quite a while. It works extremely well for us. Now, I am looking at something new. We would like to: boot ( some OS - hopefully linux )from the network using pxelinux. make a small partition dos partition on the first disk. connect ( via perl dbi ) to a back end database Download the appropriate files for either a winxp build OR a kernel/ramdisk for a

Hello all, I have a customer that insists of using upstream vendor's diskless (system-config-netboot) rather than LTSP. The reason is that he wants to use a 100% packages from the vendor, not from LTSP or any other party. I try the vendor's diskless system, and although it's very simple to setup, it lacks the support and/or documentation whereas LTSP is very good in it. Another

Hi syslinux experts, So, I have a pxe boot tree that looks something like this: /menu.cfg /linux /ubuntu /amd64 /meerkat (contains a mirror of the netboot ubuntu image) If I set the following in the appropriate stanza of my dhcpd.conf (for isc dhcpd v3), I can boot the ubuntu installer: filename "linux/ubuntu/amd64/meerkat/pxelinux.0"; next-server <tftp_server_ip>; I would

I have tried to get this working SO many times, everywhere I look on the web tells me i have this correct. I have the following stanza in my /tftboot/lts/pxelinux.cfg/default label Ghost kernel memdisk append initrd=netboot.img For some reason, it doesn't work - I get the error messages Missing parameter in config file Could not find kernel image: linux boot: The netboot.img is in the

I am having difficulty trying to figure out how to get a computer to boot from it's local disk automatically after the pxe menu times out. I installed syslinux-3.11-4 with yum onto CentOS 5.5 It boots to the local disk if I select Local from the menu and press enter but it never times out and boots localy. The AUTOBOOT message doesn't appear either. Which instructions in the PXELINUX

Oh, alright my specific issue is just about creating the actual pxe image.. not what happens after -----Original Message----- From: CentOS <centos-bounces at centos.org> On Behalf Of R C Sent: Thursday, December 26, 2019 12:18 PM To: centos at centos.org Subject: Re: [CentOS] livemedia-creator --make-pxe-live CentOS 7 I have "issues" with later versions of Centos/RHEL 7 also.

First off I love syslinux and it has worked flawless for us on the unix side of the realm. We're trying to use our ghost images within a dos netboot using syslinux. Unfortunatly we can only pass DHCP ip's to hosts that exhibit a vendor code 'like windows/pxe/and other os's do". Unfortunatly DOS does not, so we cannot request a second IP after the pxe process to map samba

Hello I wonder, if you know any more about the possibilities of having a standard Network driver for most cards. Is there any such thing for linux? Where do I get it? Is there possibly something for DOS? A UNDI Packetdriver would be cool, because then I could use DosSCP on every Network card I would ever be using with MemDisk (which in turn is very cool.) bye Christian (thinking about writing

Hi there, we are using a couple of Diskless Linux Workstations in conjunction with PXE capabable Network cards to boot the system. This works fine using pxelinux. However, there are a few workstations left, which are not able to boot via PXE and thus this workstations need a Kernel on a floppy disk and an additional initrd image. The Problem with is, that both of them don't fit on a floppy

I saw a section entitled "PXELINUX and the Windows Remote Install Server", but there was nothing below it. I'm trying to figure out how to do this. Any advise would be appreciated. Do you suggest PXE, Etherboot, or Netboot? Could someone explain the difference? I still haven't figured out how all this fits together yet. Thanks.

Hello everyone, I am using pxelinux to boot kernel from network, which goes ok. But when root must be mounted from NFS, I get the following code: Looking up port 100003/2 on 192.168.1.1 RPC: sendmsg returned error 22 portmap: RPC call returned error 22 ROOT-NFS: unable to get nfsd port number from server, using default looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 192.168.1.1 RPC: sendmsg returned error

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get an asus motherboard to netboot. It has an integrated Nvidia boot agent that's supposed to network boot pxe happily. I've setup the necessary services and environments in tftpd, however, the boot agent is running into trouble requesting files from the tftp server. It always seems to receive File Not Found errors. The filenames are specified properly
