The reason I ask is the once piece needed to make this work, doesn't. Specifically, if I set the NET_BOOT_OPTION in systemimager.conf to 'local' before doing the network installation, the systems install fine, and when I reboot them they try to boot off local disk, but they hang at the message telling me they're booting off the disk. Since there's really no detailed documentation on how all this works I'm left to conclude:
- I'm doing something wrong
- maybe it's a bug with redhat 9.0
- it's broken and doesn't really work
There is also references to mkclientnetboot, but that's not really documented either and although I ran it I'm not sure what (if anything) it does...
So if this doesn't work, how do people install a rack of systems? The machines I'm using allow you to interrupt the boot process with F12 to tell it to do a network boot, so I can leave the bios set to boot off disk before the network and all works fine, but that requires manual intervention with each machine which I'd think defeats the high level idea behind SI, especially if I want to install severl hundred (or thousand) images.
Any and all comments would be appreciated.
