similar to: Chain-loading from WDS to PXELinux on a different tftp server

Thanks for your email. Yes it does provide some insight into why I could hack a Linux DHCP server into providing enough PXE boot information for PXE 3 clients but PXE 2.1 were happy (ROMs under many circumstances need to use proxy dhcp 4011 - as documented by IBM on the link I shared earlier). It appears only the most latest Dell business systems have EFI 64 support, and the best you can expect

Hey guys, We are going with WDS to fire up first to get the benefits of targeted M$ deployments. If you have the "handle unknown computers" off on your M$ Distribution point, then you can still use regular WDS which runs next as a PXE filter (DLL linked into WDS) to fire off anything you want to including PXELinux. The stuff I was talking about before with PXELinux not working in

Hello, We are trying to set up a configuration with pxelinux on a linux machine and WDS, allowing us to be free to boot linux netboot installers from the tftp server. We have validated that pointing our dhcp server to the wds server works perfectly. Our idea was to use pxechain.com to launch the wdsnbp.com kernel as below : label windows KERNEL pxechain.com APPEND <ip

I am testing BDD 2007 and WDS on a Windows 2003 Server. I have a PXE Server with tftpd32 and pxelinux boot. Is it possible to have a menu entry that chain the first pxe booting(pxelinux) to the WDS Server which is on a different computer because I can't install WDS on the TFTP pxelinux. I have testing this entry: LABEL TEST WDS kernel ipadress::pxeboot.0 but the first server always respond

The UEFI PXE boot DHCP/proxyDHCP issue is very timely. I am working on that very topic now. Our scenario is a manufacturing environment set up to format and load/install custom hard drive images in our systems. Our environment: This is a manufacturing floor setup where we build computers for our customers. We have two servers and a client in the mix, all connected via Ethernet (IPv4 only).

I am trying to figure out a way to have a menu item in PXELINUX hand off control to WDS(Windows Deployment services 2008R2). Is this something that can be done with PXELINUX? So what I would like is a way to have PXELINUX and WDS work on the same network with PXELINUX being the main and booting WDS from a menu option in the pxelinux.cfg file. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello there, I suceeded in setting up WDS with PXELinux. Now I'm trying to point the primary tftp server with pxechain.com to a second tftp server. Actually it will just load the specified kernel, which is given through APPEND. After that the tftp client just freezes. Do I need to start with another tftp? The actual used tftp (and DHCP) server comes from Win2008 R2 Server. (Using Syslinux

The latest batch of computers that are being purchased by our organisation appear to be UEFI-only. Our WDS installation can network boot such devices, but goes straight into WDS rather than letting us have our SYSLINUX menu. Is there a way to set up SYSLINUX for use with WDS in EFI mode? Can it chain into WDS proper as one of the menu items like the legacy BIOS version can? If so, please could

Hi everybody, I'm facing a issue with the pxelinux when trying to Boot WDS and I run PXELINUX version 4.03 2010-10-22 and trying to chain (pxechain.com is from the same syslinux package as pxelinux) the WDS (that is a windows 2008 R2). $WINDOWS-2K8-R2-IP$ = The IP address to the WDS server and this is the config in the pxelinux.cfg/default $LINUX-PXE-SERVER$ = The server that serves the

Dear All, First posting here... I am trying to integrate a PXELinux boot into my native-mode WDS server. I have found that making WDS boot the PXELinux is easy (see below), it is making PXELinux give control back to WDS that I have not cracked yet. -In your WDS server, copy the contents of your tftpboot folder to the Boot\x86 folder in your RemoteInstall one. -Open the Windows Deployment

After about 15 hours, a packet sniffer and a ton of google searching later, I have a solution to getting WDS (Windows Deployment Services) to work with PXELINUX Google didn't turn up anything of use directly, everything that was referenced appeared to be related to starting pxelinux from either WDS or RIS. That just won't do, since they often can give hiccups and lockups when
