Hi, I have a working PXE environment that chainloads gPXE and loads pxelinux.0 afterwards. As I'm also interested in doing san boot (in my case aoe) I tried loading the new gpxelinux.0 file instead of my gPXE --> pxelinux.0 setup (works) and booting from my aoe target by adding this to the default config file: LABEL doaoe MENU LABEL Continue AoE kernel sanboot.c32 append

Hey Folks, Sorry if this has been asked before; hard to get a usable search on 'isolinux OR syslinux pxe-boot' with just the info I need! I work in a large organization, and the group which manages the network may not be the guys managing the hosts. I have a network and dhcp server, and pxelinux is working very well on that net. I want to make my net-install resources available to

Hi, I've been trying a couple of day now, but I can't seem to figure it out. On www.etherboot.org, I found the example of configuring gPXE so that it mounts an iSCSI lun and then boot from CDROM so you are able to install on the LUN. But if I use gpxelinux.0 (latest release 3.73), with sanboot.c32 like this: label sanboot2008srv menu label ^[iscsi] Windows server 2008 kernel

Hello ! I am completely new to syslinux. I followed this instruction manually: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/pxe.html I am on debian and do not have syslinux installed, but using this debian box as a tftp server. I had to modify the instructions given by the installation above. I downloaded the 6.02 version and copied the files to the tftp root. I am using dnsmasq as a tftp

ifgpxe.c32 is a com32 module that will run one command if gPXE extensions are available, and a different command if not. At VMware, we use this module to chain-load gpxelinux.0 from pxelinux.0. Both of those binaries use exactly the same configuration file, and this module allows us to differentiate between the two cases and break the infinite chain-loading loop that might result. Typical usage:

In PXELinux 4.06 (the vanilla version, not gpxelinux.0), I'm trying to use pxechn.c32 to call iPXE (undionly) with option 67 set to call an iPXE script. The relevant portion of my PXELinux config looks like this: LABEL MDT MENU LABEL ^B - MDT 2012 SP1 com32 pxechn.c32 APPEND undionly.kpxe -o 67.s=ipxe/mdt.ipxe However iPXE doesn't seem to get the option correctly, it goes into

Now that pxechain.com can work (with my patch to core/pxelinux.asm), a PXE Chainload COM32 is not as big of a deal but I agree with HPA that it would be a good idea, especially considering the possible flexibility that this may allow. For the moment, I've named the chain module pxechn.c32 in order to not collide with the name pxechain.com when not specifying the .com/.c32 extension.

I'm looking for either a way of setting the root path - a Linux style "pivot_root" functionality, that would be perfect. Also a way of overriding prefixing the root path with a URL or some other acceptable syntax to designate to use a different TFTP server. That would really make PXELinux really versatile. Some people concerned about security may want a way of blocking that just

I have produced a first cut of integrating gPXE with PXELINUX. This builds, in addition to the usual pxelinux.0, an image called gpxelinux.0 which includes the gPXE network stack. The result is that one can now download images via (almost) any network protocol supported by gPXE, including http. This lets one do fun things like using a CGI or PHP script for the configuration file. SAN

Hi! The linux.c32 module doesn't boot my kernel, while pxelinux itself does: kernel vmlinuz-2.6.23 append initrd=initrd.img-2.6.23 root=/dev/mapper/root works, while kernel linux.c32 append vmlinuz-2.6.23 initrd=initrd.img-2.6.23 root=/dev/mapper/root does not: it stays sitting after loading the initrd without any output. Version 3.50-pre2 worked, current git does not work.

Dear developer, I am working on a project for my graduate work (diploma), which includes iSCSI and AOE booting. I made some menus using pxelinux and things are working fine with linux, but I have a small problem with windows system which require direct iscsi or aoe access. I have dhcpd.conf setup that it to each first dhcp request handles out pxelinux.0, then I can chooose from that menu which OS

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

Hi All, A while back there was some mention that gpxe may acquire the ability to receive command-line parameters. I'd dearly love if this could become a reality. It would be fantastic if we could have a pxelinux menu config as follows: KERNEL gpxelinux.0 APPEND config http://someserver.net/gpxe-for-this-box.cfg This would solve a huge number of our problems since we don't have the

Hello. We are using gpxelinux from SYSLINUX 4.02. We recently purchased some HP Proliant BL460c G6 servers with Broadcom BCM 57711 10Gbit NICS. We have a very simple pxelinux.gpxe script compiled into gpxelinux.0: #!gpxe set use-cached 1 dhcp net0 chain http://webserver/gpxe/gpxe.php?IP=${net0/ip} The PHP script dynamically creates a config file that looks something like this: #!gpxe set

I'm using syslinux 4.04 with dynamically generated menus configuration based on info found in various web pages. I'm doing my testing using a vCetner 4.10 Vmware virtual machine. This works some of the time, but not always. I just copied the prebuilt modules from the syslinux 4.04 distribution for gpxelinx.0, menu.c32, reboot.c32, and pxelinux.0 When I boot a machine dhcpd says to boot

IRC user ernini first noticed this. We both tried using gpxe/gpxelinux.0 from Syslinux-4.04-pre22. ernini used pxechain to a commercial NBP which RETs (the same as PXELINUX) and failed. Both of us had success with core/pxelinux.0 from Syslinux-4.04-pre22. For my test, I have a VM in VMware Server 2.0.2 (VMHW v7). I loaded gpxelinux.0 using the VM's built-in PXE ROM. Then I used
