I did all steps Vann mentioned. Here is what I need to do, please correct me.
For network boot:
Collect MAC for each node and stop collecting
click "configure DHCP server"
click "setup network boot"
then(???):
click "close", switch to client node, start a new network boot(I
just push reset button on my client, now power down)
or
switch to client node, starting a new network boot, after all
clients are up, switch back to server, click "close"
For boot from floppy, I need to do:
Collect MAC for each node and stop collecting
click "configure DHCP server"
click "build autoinstall floppy"
click "close" ??? (or wait for all clients are up)
Insert floppy to client node, and start new boot
hope client is boot
click "close" ???
Does anyone know 3C905 TMX NIC + Linux 7.2 works OK for OSCAR? There
is a sentence inside doc mentions there are problems for some 3Com cards.
Thanks for help
