Hi All, Now that we have multiboot capable pxelinux, thanks to mboot.c32, I decided to try and remove pxegrub from my x86 jumpstart infrastructure since, in theory, pxelinux can now do it all. The problem I'm having is I'm not very sure I'm following Tim's documentation correctly... I'm not 100% what comes after the --- and whether the Sun kernel needs it's arguments

Hello Using pxelinux for so long time i don't want to use pxegrub to PXE boot solaris 10 on x86 . So i would like to use pxelinux to do this jobs . I use ipappend and mboot.c32 however i don't success to have the kernel argument appended with BOOTIF : here is what i use : LABEL solaris MENU DEFAULT MENU LABEL Solaris Jumpstart KERNEL mboot.c32 APPEND multiboot kernel/unix

Hi all, I'm trying to use mboot.c32 to build our Solaris machines but the problem we are getting is the network interface doesn't get configured. It would boot in to the miniroot and then drops in to a shell. At the shell, if I configure the interface via dhcp it would continue on with the jumpstart. This is the first time we are using syslinux (version 4.04) and looking at the

Hello, I am trying to boot x86 solaris 10 8/07 via a system running fed7 and syslinux 3.62. If I use pxelinux I get the kernel to boot but it doesn't load my network drivers for the Broadcom II nic. I rebuilt the kernel (x86.miniroot) for solaris with the Broadcom nic drivers but it still didn't work. I read some stuff where people were using pxegrub and booting pxegrub.0 but

Hey, everyone, I''m running Xen 3.2 (SLES10) and trying to get an OpenSolaris PV domU to run correctly. I''ve followed a couple of the instruction sets out on the Xen wiki and other folks blogs, but I''m running into an issue with the domU crashing. The OpenSolaris version is the latest development release - 5.11-0.128. The config looks like this:

Hello i'm working on a netboot environement with a highly configurable menu system. for some parts i like to use pxelinux for others pxegrub. I can load both seperatly. Now what i want is to have the possibility to switch from une to another. I tried: to load pxelinux from pxegrub: menu.lst: title pxelinux root (nd) kernel (nd)/pxelinux.0 title pxelinux2 root (nd) kernel

Hi, I''m trying to create OpenSolaris (2008.11) domU on RedHat Linux dom0. I''m using a file backed VBD. I used the iso image to first launch and install OpenSolaris into the file VBD. Once that process is complete, I''m trying to run it using the config file below: name = ''opensolaris'' vcpus = 1 memory = "512" vif =

Hi Aaron, i know it is not an interactive menu - but in my 'config' file i call for a textfile to be displayed : DISPLAY menu.txt that contains all my labels. See the first part of my 'config' : label 0 LOCALBOOT 0 label 1 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND initrd=images/w2k/unatt.ima label 2 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND

sorry - i must have overlooked the part where you mentioned that.. my fault. What software are you looking at ? Altiris maybe ? I am, ofcourse interested in the option you are looking for. Please keep this list updated.

I have an image of a dos floppy that loads the undi driver from 3com and mounts an smb share. This works great with pxelinux(from syslinux) and memdisk I need to make it work with pxegrub so we can use menus. (or figure out a menu system for pxelinux) With pxegrub I use memdisk as the kernel and load the dos image as a ramdisk. The undi driver loads and doesn't complain but, the network is

Greetings: [ First, apologies if this has been discussed before. I looked through about the last year's worth of archives, but couldn't find a "Search feature", so I used the visual grep method, which is not foolproof. I also tried to download the full text of the archives to use the real grep, but I got an error loading it... ] I'm working on setting up the Xen virtual

I''ve got a CentOS 5.3 dom0 with Xen 3.4.1-rc5 (or so). I''ve tried the same stuff below with 3.4.0, no difference. I''m trying to install 2009.06 PV domU based on instructions from [1] and [2]. I can run the install fine, I can also get the kernel and boot archive (from [2]) after the install. But for the life of me I can''t get the installed domU to boot. If I

Hi There is a problem when creating a domU. I intend to install Solaris N90 on RedHat RHEL5 in paravirtualized(I''ve tried fully virtualized method, that''s no problem). #xm info release : 2.6.18-53.el5xen machine : i686 xen_caps : xen-3.0-x86_32p My steps are as follow(install via NFS): 1 mkdir disk and mkdir Solaris 2 mount /dev/cdrom /disk/Solaris, it tell me that disk

I've recently moved from pxegrub to pxelinux (well, syslinux...) for many benefits. (memory fingerprint, etc) Its running perfectly, and exactly how I like it, except. LOCALBOOT 0 DOES NOT actually mount and boot the hard drive. All it seems to be doing is actually return error to the BIOS, which then boots the next device in it's list. This isnt a problem on most systems, but on

Greetings, I have a problem that is baffling me. My host machine is an older Dual Xeon machine that does not support HVM - PAE is supported. I have 2008.11 b98 installed as Dom0. I''m trying to install the same as a DomU. In the DomU, I''m starting the ssh service, logging in with X forwarding and starting the gui with: (dom1) jack$ pfexec gui-install The gui displays on my

Let me thank everyone in advance. I''ve read a number of posts here and it helped tremendously in getting the install done. I have a couple of remaining issues which I can''t seem to overcome.
