similar to: PXE-booting Xen using PXELINUX

Hi all, A number of people have posted to the Xen lists recently wanting to network-boot Xen on machines whose NICs are not supported by GRUB. I''ve been writing a module for PXELINUX that will allow it to boot Xen directly over the network on PXE-enabled machines, without relying on any hacks (mbootpack, &c.), or needing to write/port any device drivers. I have a version of it

Hi All: I found this old message on the web archives. I've gotten Xen working with PXELinux, albeit with something of a hack. The basic chain is: 1. pxelinux 2. memdisk 3. FAT16 floppy image 4. grub installed on floppy image 5. xen.gz and vmlinuz on floppy image While this seems pretty simple, the key bits were to use: 1. FAT16 (not ext2, etc) for the floppy image 2. use the 'raw'

Hello, I'm having trouble PXE booting the Xen hypervisor kernel as follows: PXELINUX 3.31 0x4518b206 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H.

Hi all, I was trying to install Red Hat Linux 7.3 on my computer through network install. I had setup TFTP server and Linux network install server. DHCP server is ready as well. The ROM of onboard network card was enabled, the chip on the card is Realtek R8111B. Everything was fine at the booting stage, machine got the IP and booted up with the pxelinux, then kernel vmlinuz and initrd.img

Hello, new to the group. We have been using PXELINUX for some time now with great success. However, with the recent spawn of virtual machines now supporting PXE boot, has anyone been able to mount the disk in this enviornment? Could someone direct me to any information on how to mount and or partition drives? I have discovered the same issue with the HP DX2200 model of PC. For example if I run

Greetings, I've been a user and fan of SYSLINUX for a couple of years now. I use PXELINUX for a PXE server. I've only been able to boot linux kernel/initrd images and dos bootdisks, however now I'm wanting to create a boot image for the 'Rescue Is Possible' (RIP) linux recovery disk - http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip/ Previous versions came with a

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

Hello, I got in a situation where pxelinux 3.7 (or 3.6) reboots constantly after loading the configuration file and displaying the 'display' option file, but never showing 'boot:' prompt. config file is following: # PXE SYSLINUX config file - look at # http://syslinux.zytor.com/faq.php for syntax # # ---------- This is gate configure file ------- timeout 20 prompt 1 display

I've got a Fedora 13 box that I am using as a pxe server to pxe load client machines. Using dhcp, tftp, and http I have been able to succesfully pxe load clients. However I am now trying to serve up multiple images via a menu, and not having any luck in configuring my pxelinux.cfg/default file to direct clients to the appropriate source repositories. I do have the pxelinux.cfg/default file

Greetings all I just recently ran into a problem booting pxe on a new model laptop, the Fujitsu P1610. Here is my setup first of all Windows 2000 server (DHCP Server), pointing to pxelinux.0 on my tftp server Windows 2003 (TFTP Server), using tftpd from windows 2003 server Tftpboot folder containing pxelinux.0 (v3.31) and numerous boot images, and menu.c32 Pxelinux.cfg folder containing default

I found (and fixed) a problem with my realtek onboard 8139 controller. dhcpd server sends filename "pxelinux.0" but realtek requests "pxelinux.0\377" (i.e. the octal character 377 is appended), resulting in a file not found during the tftpd phase. I fixed this by adding a mapping to tftpd: # strip ending garbage from filenames (Realtek PXE bug) r ^([[:graph:]]*)(.+)$ \1

Hello, We currently have a pxelinux setup, where our servers are offered a set of firmware update and linux installation options, when an operator configures them to do a network boot. Now our Windows guys wants to setup another PXE/TFTP solution (Microsoft ADS) to help them with their installations. They also need access to the firmware update options from the existing solution, so I'm

Spike, There are multiple binaries that come with syslinux. I would highly recommend that you start with the official syslinux pre-built's of pre-7 on kernel.org. You will find inside an syslinux.efi in a 64 bit folder and one in an 32 bit folder. These are the files that you need to point your clients to for efi booting. pxelinux.0 is for bios booting only.

Hey, I am running a custom-built router (based on a PCengines apu2c4 board, see https://github.com/rtr7/router7 for details) on which I am using PXE boot for recovery purposes, i.e. reverting to an older version of the software/configuration. In this scenario, my workstation acts as the DHCP, TFTP and HTTP server, and my router PXE boots into a recovery program. I have noticed a couple of times
