You could always use the IPAPPEND=1 option to the pxelinux.cfg/foo file. This gets the PXE bootstrap to forward the information the PXE DHCP request got on to the kernel. It's not quite as tidy as keeping it all in the DHCP server, as you don't get to pass in options like NFSROOT, etc. But these can all be specified in the PXE boot config, I find that it's easier to work with. here's my pxelinux.cfg/C0A80105 as an example: PROMPT 0 default fai-install label fai-install kernel k8 append root=/dev/nfs FAI_ACTION=install FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt,syslogd nfsroot=192.168.1.42:/usr/lib/fai/nfsroot console=ttyS0,115200 IPAPPEND 1 You also need to use this, if your NFS root server isn't the same as your DHCP server, due to a deficiency in at least the 2.2.20 kernel that ships with woody's FAI. -- Sam Vilain, [EMAIL PROTECTED] If Karl, instead of writing a lot about capital, had made a lot of it ... it would have been much better.
