Hi all,
I'm trying to install OpenBSD on a V240 machine which will then make part of
the KDE4 devel effort for obsd :)
The point is that I need to consolidate a network install procedure for
-current, as this machine will be kept physically away from me. Otherwise it
won't be useful :((( Till now I always installed on sparc64 just by CD,
while on i386 I normally run PXE+FTP installs.
I configured the isc dhcp server like this:
option domain-name-servers 10.9.9.1,
208.67.222.222;
ddns-update-style
interim;
allow
booting;
allow
bootp;
default-lease-time
86400;
max-lease-time
604800;
authoritative;
host localrouter
{
hardware ethernet
00:d0:59:bf:25:76;
fixed-address
10.9.9.1;
}
subnet 10.9.9.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
range 10.9.9.10
10.9.9.99;
option routers
10.9.9.1;
option subnet-mask
255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address
10.9.9.255;
server-identifier
10.9.9.1;
next-server
10.9.9.1;
option root-path
"/var/tftpboot";
filename "ofwboot.net";
# filename
"pxeboot";
}
I also configured TFTP and prepared all the necessary files in their
locations. When I do:
{1} ok boot net:dhcp bsd.rd
I get the following:
SC Alert: Host System has

Rebooting with command: boot net:dhcp
bsd.rd
Boot device: /pci@1f,700000/network@2:dhcp File and args:

1.4
1000 Mbps full duplex Link
up
No response for RARP
request
open /pci@1f,700000/network@2:dhcp/bsd.rd: No such file or directory
It looks like it cannot find bsd.rd file (while it obviously finds
ofwboot.net).
If I give no options it says:
>> OpenBSD BOOT
1.4
Trying bsd...
Which is obviously not the file I need, because it ought to start bsd.rd.
Where am I wrong??? Can I specify bsd.rd only with rarp??? Or does it work
with dhcp either???
Thanks
