[Arglh...] netinst on a Dell pe1650 whith PXE
Hi dear fellows,
I've found on Matt Domsh's page [1] a netinst suitable for a Dell pe1650
[2]:
bootbf2.4.19-ac4.iso
Unfortunatly I'm not very aware with linux net booting.
At this point, DHCP and TFTP work fine.
I'm curently trying PXE to boot the pe1650. But I don't know how to organise
the tftp root directory, an I do not know which options are necessary in the
xxxx config file in order to boot the kernel, the one with the booting
machine's hex IP adress. Here are some details about my confs.
inetd.conf :
tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -r blksize
/tftpboot
Now what I get on the pe1650 screen:
PXELINUX Version: 1.75-1 (Debian, 2002-06-20) blahblah
UNDI data segment at: 00091530
UNDI data segment size: B440
UNDI code segment at: 0009C970
UNDI code segment size: 2E00
PXE entry point found (we hope) at 9C97:0106
ip=192.168.1.102:192.168.1.3:192.168.1.15.255.255.255.0
TFTP prefix: /tftpboot/
Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/C0A80166
Could not find kernel image: linux
boot: _
I tryed first directly with the .iso file, then I tried mounting it in a
directory:
/tftpboot/bootbf2.4.19-ac4/boot/rescue.bin
boot.catalog
dists/...8<...
pxelinux.0
pxelinux.cfg/C0A80166
my pxelinux.cfg/C0A80166 is rather simple as I do not yet understand how to
populate it :
LABEL pe1650
KERNEL vmlinuz
APPEND initrd=bootbf2.4.19-ac4/boot/rescue.bin
So if someone could help me, it would be great !!!
Many thanks, Alexis
