Hi. I have setup virtualbox with a windows 10 that is acting as a DHCP and TFTP server. I have created folder like this: c:\tftpboot in that folder "pxelinux.0" and "ldlinux.c32" is located. another folder is created: c:\tftpboot\pxelinux.cfg In that folder "default" is located. I have another testpc that I want to startup with pxe, but I get this error:

What about using linux.c32?? It has some special initrd features, which someone has very kindly documented: ? http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Linux.c32 Shao Miller Synthetel Corporation W: https://www.synthetel.com

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

Hello All, this is my first post so I'll try to be as verbose as possible. We have a PXE deployment server serving mostly fujitsu RX300 rack mount servers with Intel 82575EB Gigabit Ethernet Controllers onboard. I recently upgraded from version 4.07 to version 6.02 and, without making any edits to my default menu, immediately noticed a regression. I use vesamenu.c32 to present a menu to the

Hi, I'm not sure what you call it, but I do not use EFI, so I guess it is BIOS/legacy system. My idea was to have the option to install windows 7 on my computer and it should install drivers that's not recognized in the install progress. My default file is this: DEFAULT menu.c32 PROMPT 0 MENU TITLE PXE Special Boot Menu MENU INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/graphics.conf MENU AUTOBOOT

Gene, Ady thanks for your suggestions. >> What if you dropped the timeout to 0.8-2.0 seconds or even 0.2 seconds?

I looked into Linux.c32 and added that to my setup.menu file.

Hi All. I am curious if it is possible to reinstall linux distribution to centos (or another distro) if I have a remote linux server with no kvm access (i do not want to use virtualization). I know that for installation pxe, tftpboot and kickstart or a proper iso/cd and kickstart are standard options. But for such operations I would need kvm access. Are there any alternatives which do not need

I am trying to set a uniform PXE environment to load multiple distros. RHEL 5.1 and 4.7 SUSE 10.2 and 11 Solaris 10 X86 Window Multiple server versions.... - Why? Because I am in hell. What I want is to have an upper level pxelinux.0 call the default menu directories that come with the releases. Is there a way to call pxelinux.0 and point it at a different pxelinux.cfg directory?

I am trying to load a WinPE boot image using wimboot, and failing. The 3 files appear to load successfully (the output "Encapsulating ... <filename>" is displayed for each file, taking a few minutes on the .wim file as expected based on the size), but then the workstation just reboots, and I don't see output after that. Has anyone successfully loaded WinPE using wimboot with

Adding an option for initrdfile= boot argument to be ignored by wimboot worked just fine. They can add this patch, which is probably most sane, or syslinux could add the INITRDFILE configuration option instead of having to append the option for linux.c32 wimboot-2.4.0/src/cmdline.c @ Line ~107 } else if ( key == cmdline ) { /* Ignore unknown initial
