Hi All, I've been trying to understand how to use pxechn.c32 to chain a local pxelinux menu item to a remote server which has it's own pxelinux hierarchy served via TFTP and HTTP. We have no control over DHCP next-server and filename fields so I wanted to exploit the "prefix" -p option that pxechn.c32 accepts. I spent a long time hitting my head against a brick wall until I

Currently, the TFTP configuration file discovery process will request a set of files based on the UUID, MAC address, lease IP address and eventually fall back to "default": /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/b8945908-d6a6-41a9-611d-74a6ab80b83d /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B [...] /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/default

Hi Everyone. is there a need to have on searching the configuration file the request for the "odd ip addresses" ? Let me explain: from /doc/pxelinux.txt : ... Next, it will search for the config file using its own IP address in upper case hexadecimal, e.g. 192.0.2.91 -> C000025B (you can use the included progam "gethostip" to compute the hexadecimal IP address for

Hi, I am trying to setup my own PXE boot server. I tried several PXE bootable Linux-Distributions. For example if I use the ubuntu netboot image from [1] it works quit well but there are a few other images they do not work in my case e.g.: RIPLinuX [2]. A friend tested this image on his PXE boot server with success. I also checked the download with md5sum. In my case I can see the boot menu [3].

Hello, I am trying to setup a PXE boot installation server (CentOS 5 which has tftp-server-0.42-31.el5.centos and dhcp-3.0.5-5el5 and httpd-2.2.3.7.el5.centos) and I followed this recommendation: http://www.linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/pxeboot.html in order to create an http install server (I'd rather not do NFS, FTP installations due to bandwitdth restrictions at our site). I keep

Hi. I have looked at PXElinux<http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX> to understand all this, but I'm very sorry I don't. I have managed to setup to boot from PXELinux, but I'm not an expert on how to setup a menu file for making a windows unattended installation. Could someone help me with that? Is there some kind of a forum for this or is it just by email?

I made other tests. It's not a matter of Win98 versus WinXP, things change passing from tftpd32 v310beta to v3.33. This version seems to work fine, but the logs show problems.

Hi all, We have a customer, where we are trying to install CentOS 7.3 on the new Intel Knights Landing nodes, unfortunately, we are unable to install then using PXE boot. Now, I have a lot of experience of installation of machines using PXE boot, so the setup of that is not the problem. Both myself and my colleagues have looked through the problem, and we are unable to get much diagnosis of
