Diskless Network Kickstart?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all.  I have RedHat 6.2 up and consistently performing kickstart installs
via a boot floppy & nfs.  I would like to dump the boot floppy and have a
completely network based install (via DHCP/NFS).

I configured a separate vlan so my dhcp server doesn't conflict with the
main one on our network.  Here's the config with the added stuff from the
6.2 Kickstart How-To:

subnet 192.168.100.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        range 192.168.100.100 192.168.100.200;
        option routers 192.168.100.1;
        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
        option domain-name-servers 209.85.110.11;
        filename "/mnt/kickstart/";
        next-server 192.168.100.1;
}

I have a nic with PXE and have it set as the primary boot device.  It comes
up, gets its IP, then starts trying to TFTP.  Does anyone happen to know
where it's trying to TFTP what files?  I know this isn't really a kickstart
issue yet (as I'm not even to the kickstart part), but I thought some of you
might have experienced the same thing?

Thanks for any comments :)
