Dear list,
I have been trying to setup a PXE guess installation on Fedora 17
with no success.
I build a bridge, and connect my VM to it but DHCP times out in the VM
install.
I don't know how to debug this bridge. I guess I could connect a 'live'
machine to it,
but what then?
I follow:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Virtualization_Guide/sect-Virtualization-Network_Configuration-Bridged_networking_with_libvirt.html
and
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Virtualization_Host_Configuration_and_Guest_Installation_Guide/sect-Virtualization_Host_Configuration_and_Guest_Installation_Guide-Guest_Installation-Installing_guests_with_PXE.html
These guides almost work. Two differences show up:
brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.14feb5b90f56 no p5p1
virbr0 8000.525400da475b yes virbr0-nic
The virtual bridge has an interface. I assume I set this up in the dim
and distant past, but I don't think it is relevant.
# service iptables save
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl save iptables.service
Unknown operation 'save'.
This I think I work around using the iptables rules relating to a bridge.
One stupid question: does the external network see the MAC address of
the host or the guest?
Thanks for any other ideas...
Bill
