similar to: [PXELINUX]A PXE booting question, please

Hi, to install current PC models (with new Intel NICs) via Kickstart/PXE, I wanted to add the newest e1000e-Treiber to initrd.img. With this modified image, the Kickstart kernel crashes with the following error messages: [...] md: Autodetecting RAID arrays. md: autorun ... md: ... autorun DONE. RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 RAMDISK: incomplete write (20480 != 32768) 6062080

All, I'm having an issue with my menu.c32. I created a menu and it appears correctly, but once I get to my choice, it won't select it and begin the install. Below is my pxelinux.cfg/default: default menu.c32 timeout 600 display boot.msg menu title Welcome to the incNETWORKS RHEL5/6 PXEBOOT Server! menu color border 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color sel 7 #ffffffff #ff000000 menu color

Hi, I am trying to use menu.c32 with RHEL 4.2. Everything seems to work fine until menu.c32 loads. Just half a second before the menu draws I see a set of error messages like so: Unknown keyword in config file. Unknown keyword in config file. Missing parameter in config file. Unknown keyword in config file. Unknown keyword in config file. Unknown keyword in config file. The

I'm trying to use menu.c32 to boot different kickstart files. The problem I have is regardless of what menu item I select, it always uses the client.cfg (default entry) even if I select one of the others. I have removed the DEFAULT from that entry and it still always uses the ckient.cfg kickstart file Any ideas. Thanks, Mike Jarka default menu.c32 prompt 0 timeout 300 MENU TITLE PXE Boot

I'm attempting to do a PXE boot and at the point where it tries to load the kernel the process hangs. My default config file looks like this: default linux label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=10000 ks=nfs:172.16.0.1:/kickstart/ks/cfg Does this look like a problem with the kernel or with the append line? Thanks; Dennis

Hi, I have a problem with isolinux failing to boot a kernel whenever I navigate and trigger the menu via serial console. My test machine is a DL585 G2, with iLO2. Navigating and booting the kernels off of the video console works 100% of the time. With the serial connection however, I _sometimes_ get a "menu.c32: not a COM32R image" error. Sometime it works fine. I suspect the serial

Hi: I am having problems with isolinux.cfg I am receiving several error messages. 'Missing parameter in config file' and 'Unknown keyword in config file'. Here is a copy of my Isolinux.cfg maybe sombody can help me figure it out: default ks prompt 1 timeout 60 display custom.msg F1 boot.msg F2 options.msg F3 general.msg F4 param.msg F5 rescue.msg F7 custom.msg

hi, sorry for bothering the list but since I didn't find anything in the documentation or archives I would be grateful for your help. For a customized USB installer (based on redhat anaconda) I wanted to pass an kernel parameter which contains a colon. This leads twice to the error message "Unknown keyword in syslinux.cfg." Quoting the append string using ' or "

Hi, I have built a Red Hat 7.2 system kernel 2.4.7-10 using pxelinux from syslinux-2.09 I have then installed the latest Broadcom BCM5700 Linux Driver Version 7.1.22 as per the README.TXT:- rpm -ivh bcm5700-7.1.22-1.src.rpm cd /usr/src/redhat rpm -bb SPECS/bcm5700.spec rpm -ivh --force RPMS/i386/bcm5700-7.1.22-1.i386.rpm The system reboots fine and is using the new driver I now want to update my

I am trying to use kickstart for automated builds from a DVD. Some of the machines have DVD's drives and some have CDRom drives only. With the CDRom only machines I would like to plug in an external DVD drive via USB and use this to kickstart. The DVD only machines work correctly with a isolinux.cfg as label test kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img ramdisk_size=8192

Hi, I'm missing something in my isolinux.cfg configuration but I'm not quite sure what it is. menu.c32 displays properly over video console, but on the serial connection, the first letter of the labels are duplicated, and the margin is pushed off towards the right: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59666947/isolinux.jpg my config is: --- cut --- 1. serial 0 115200 2. console 0 3. 4.

Hi all, I'm looking for some menu examples for Murali's menu system. Specifically, a headstart on creating a Kickstart menu which covers the most common options with the intention of creating this: label ks.menu kernel vmlinuz.ks.$DIST append ksdevice=eth0 ks=http://kickstartserver/$DIST/Custom/ks.cfg.$DIST initrd=initrd.ks.$DIST lang= devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=8192 Hmm...looking

Hi All, This has to be something simple....but it's really busting my chops. We have a PXE boot server that is used for initial installation of a number of operating systems and it works well. However the CentOS 5.1 x86_64 install is seriously broken. We've made the PXE boot images available from "centos/5/os/x86_64/images/pxeboot/" in the tftp boot etc. We've rsynced

Hi all.... I had posted hte following on teh centos forums, and thought there might be additional people in here who do not browse those forum, so after 4 days I am posting over here as well (sorry for the double - but figured after 4 days it was safe to do so). Hi there.... I am trying to make a custom centos server cd that will essentially do the following: throw the disk in, boot the machine,

I have successfully set up a very nice kickstart install with the i386 version of CentOS 4.3 and it works great. I am using a custom kickstart script and the kernel and initrd from disc1/images. But when I try to duplicate this for a 64 bit setup (changing paths in my tftp server, ks.cfg, etc to point to the 64 bit stuff) it successfully tftp's everything just as it should (tethereal

I've got a Fedora 13 box that I am using as a pxe server to pxe load client machines. Using dhcp, tftp, and http I have been able to succesfully pxe load clients. However I am now trying to serve up multiple images via a menu, and not having any luck in configuring my pxelinux.cfg/default file to direct clients to the appropriate source repositories. I do have the pxelinux.cfg/default file
