Hello all! I'm hoping someone can help. I'm having 2 issues; first: When trying to load a CentOS LiveCD via PXE on an Intel NUC (NUC6CAY), I get: "Not enough memory to load specified image". The image is 1.1 gigs, and there is 16 gigs of memory in the NUC. To combat this, I found this forum post <https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1398> which suggested using

----- Original Message ----- | 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?

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

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 have worked in IT for several years and programming or anything related to this is not exactly one of my strengths. I need help creating a vesamenu.. Im trying to setup up so I can access my Acronis backup and disaster recovery 10 server, knoppix live cd, hardware diagnostics - pcdoctor and maybe a hiren type boot cd. I checked the Linux irc channel which I guess is now abandoned. If anyone

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

Hello, I run a cluster for computer game servers which are started on demand by users who book them. I have 15 nodes, some of them netbooted, some of them not. Recently i replaced a couple of old netbooted machines with new ones (with harddrives) for better performance. Inside the new boxes i used NICs from the old machines that i had taken out of the cluster and netboot. A day or so

I've got a system (Supermicro P8SCT) that lacks a floppy or CD and it's old enough that it won't boot from a USB stick. Before I scrounge an optical drive to plug in, I thought perhaps I could install over the network, as I see "legacy LAN boot" in the BIOS menu. The guides for a LAN install I've found all want to do an automated kickstart install. Are there any

Hello, is it possible to overwrite 'filename' dhcp options with pxelinux command line arguments? I think it would be very useful when building complex netboot menus. If not are you planning to add it in near future? greetings -- Krzysztof Chojnowski <notch at toltech.nl>

Is there a way to produce random number for pxemenu? For example i need to balance load between 10 web-servers, so I need something like: APPEND netboot=http://boot-serv-$RANDOM10/system.img Another example is when 1000 boxes starts up at the same time (after e.g. Datacenter power failure) it'll be useful to have random values in timeout: TIMEOUT $RANDOM120 --
