Hi all, I'm working on converting workstations in our lab to diskless. So far I've got good luck with loading our customized live casper image for Ubuntu with something like this:
> dhcp net0 > initrd http://urania/initrd.gz > kernel http://urania/vmlinuz boot=casper toram netboot=nfs > nfsroot=150.243.x.x:/export/trubuntu -- > boot We really like it as gPXE allowed us to do a network boot without touching the DHCP server which we don't have control of. We burned gPXE with the script to our eth card ROM via rom-o-matic. However, I think it is a good idea to store all the kernel parameters to a file stored on a webserver rather than hard-coding them in the ROM so I don't have to flash the ROM image again every time we change the parameters for the kernel. But I haven't found anything after digging the documentation for hours. Something like dhcp net0 chainload http://urania/mygPXEconfig which can magically achieve the same effect. I wonder if that's possible and if that's possible, where can I find the directions for it. -- [email protected] _______________________________________________ gPXE mailing list [email protected] http://etherboot.org/mailman/listinfo/gpxe
