Hi,
I've been attempting to trouble shoot my attempt at pxe booting by
reading through this:
http://www.linux-sxs.org/internet_serving/pxeboot.html
One of the things it says is a requirement is a switch. Right now I'm
using a router, for which I just turned off DHCP. Anyone know if a
switch is a requirement?
Another thing I noticed is that this was entered in the DCHP config file:
host llama0 {
hardware ethernet 04:4B:80:80:80:03;
fixed-address 192.168.0.254;
option host-name "llama0";
filename "pxelinux.0";
}
I don't have this in the DHCP config template that comes with cobbler.
Is something like this required?
Thanks,
- Ole
DHCP works via subnet broadcast - if you are doing DHCP across a router, the
router needs to have dhcp-relay function turned on. Otherwise you are stuck.
The filename is set in the main ISC dhcp definition if you are using the
shipped /etc/cobbler/dhcp.template. Hence it is inherited by individual
entries. No need to set it individually for each host entry.
