Re: Booting Hangs on "Trying to Load: pxelinux.cfg/default"

2008/6/2 Ole Ersoy <ole.ersoy@xxxxxxxxx>:
pxelinux.0 is the binary pxe loader. dhcp needs to point at pxelinux.0 (wherever it is*), as this is what the client needs to boot with.

default is the default pxe configuration which a request falls down to if the corresponding 01-aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff isn't found, and is generally found in pxelinux.cfg/

A client would expect to find it in /tftpboot/cobbler/loader/pxelinux.0....

Does that help?

I think so.  Just want to make sure I'm clear.  The file is currently here:

[root@localhost ole]# ls /tftpboot/
elilo-3.6-ia64.efi  images  menu.c32  pxelinux.0  pxelinux.cfg

So if I put "pxelinux.0" for the filename option it should resolve correctly right?

That's right.

If your loader is at /tftpboot/loader/pxelinux.0 then dhcp would point at /loader/pxelinux.0

 


 
    So I changed that to "pxelinux.0", and attempted to run cobbler
   sync, which tells me:

   [root@localhost ole]# cobbler sync
   cannot find directory: -v

   I tried restarting the cobbler daemon and doing cobbler sync and the
   same message appears.  Thoughts?


tbh your cobbler setup sounds a bit FUBAR. Purge and try again perhaps?

I'll try to nuke the system and profile I added to see whether that caused the hiccup.  It was syncing fine before that.  Otherwise I'll start from scratch.

Thanks!

- Ole
