PXE support
Does anyone know if linuxbios support in PXE ? Sagiv
PXE support
Hello, It seems like linuxbios supports PXE. Can anyone tell me how it works if you have experience with it? Thanks Gin ___ Linuxbios mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
Re: PXE support
I'm pretty sure you can do PXE in Etherboot. On Mon, 20 Sep 2004 16:32:27 +0200 "Sagiv Yefet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Does anyone know if linuxbios support in PXE ? > > Sagiv > > ___ Linuxbios mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
Re: PXE support
It does. Etherboot can masquerade as PXE. Unless I'm missing something, I'm not sure why you would want to do that since the DHCP server will send a PXE image, which then has to grab the kernel. Etherboot can just grab the whole thing in one swoop. David Atlanta, GA

PXE is huge number of BIOS callbacks which are invariably buggy, to some extent. This is more of the classic case of firmware never being rock solid.

If you use etherboot as LB payload it should work. Never tried this though since I can't really recognize an advantage over the usual dhcp/tftpboot scenario. It's unlikely that you are able to use any driver like code on the network adapters without 16bit bios.

Has anyone successfully remote booted an image using PXE through Etherboot? If so, what is the target name I should give to the makefile. I am not sure how to build the file to use as the payload in Etherboot. gin ___ Linuxbios mailing list Linuxbios@clustermatic.org http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
