I am trying to kickstart a server based on the UUID

When I look in the HP ilo the UUID is listed as
368132USM53402MA

The server is an HP DL360

When I run dmidecode I get the following UUID

dmidecode |grep UUID

                UUID: 33363831-3334-5553-4D35-333430324D41

1. Why are they different?

2. Can I use the HPILO UUID to kickstart a box?

3. Should I be using the 32 bit number?

I believe the UUID should be a file in
/tftpboot/pxeboot/pxelinux.cfg

Something like that. See what tftpd logs, and whether you can map that back to your documentation.


4. What should be in this file?

A standard pxelinux configuration, much like the syslinux config on your CD or DVD.
