All,
I managed to get PXE booting working with Cobbler (I'm using DHCP outside of
Cobbler)...
I notice when I run "cobbler sync," the generated
/tftpboot/pxelnux.cfg/default does not contain any system records I have
defined. I spent most of yesterday looking through the code and see in
pxegen.py only profiles and images are listed. I managed to hack away a
little bit to get my system records to emit - and its mostly working now for
installations...
Question I have is, were system records purposefully omitted? Or am I
missing something? I'm wanting to have all my systems listed in the PXE
menu and be able to choose and install just like if I generate the iso file
and burn to CD...
Thanks,
Flossy
Yup, How would I include "external" pxeboot options such as a couple
OpenBSD flavours* - currently I maintain two TFTP instances and
manually launch the one I need at the time - I think I'm looking for
an 'include' function that survives the cobbler sync to chain in the
OBSD pxe options. Or help with the cobbler config option I'm missing.
thx
*I'm not worried about scripted installs here, just picking the right
pxe boot file
just FYI
