I have a working pxelinux environment. I point the "boot server" (windows dhcp) to my tftp server and "Bootfile name" to pxelinux. How would I invoke the chain loader over iscsi? I was reading the following page and wondering if I could use gpxelinux to boot this? http://etherboot.org/wiki/soc/2009/dverkamp/notes/windows_xp_iscsi I saw examples of san boot here http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Sanboot.c32 but im not so sure how to tie the two together. I'm guessing that gpxelinux.0 still uses a file related to the mac address probably under a directory gpxelinux.cfg or default if none exist label iscsi-xp-boot kernel sanboot.c32 append iscsi:my.target.dns.name::::iqn.2000-01.test.etherboot.org:iscsiboot.xp Would that do? Or can I continue to use pxelinux.0 with sanboot? I'll try this when I get it built but it is taking me forever to get xp built properly. then in my dhcp server point it to my tftp server with the file gpxelinux.0 instead of pxelinux.0 After I get it built I'm guessing I can sysprep it and deploy it to other iscsi shares off of real iscsi devices and
