Hi everyone,
I am just letting you know that the chainbooting with pxelinux from debian 'stable' (Version 4.02+dfsg-7) does not work.
I using the pxe dispatcher with this version it doesn't work, with the use of syslinux from 'oldstable' (Version 3.71+dfsg-5) the chainbooting works.
Any idea what could be the problem?
Note: letting you know that gPXE 4.02 does work with syslinux 4.02

JM
As far as I know, iPXE (and gPXE) doesn't support the COM32R modules in syslinux 4.x, the old COM32 modules should work. Are you trying to directly run a COM32R module? Your phrase "chainbooting with pxelinux FROM debian stable..." doesn't make sense. Do you mean TO, not FROM, here? Or do you mean that you used the pxelinux.0 included with Debian Stable to try and PXE boot something (maybe debian)?
Your problems with the pxe dispatcher I've answered here,

thanks for the reply,

I just meant that the dhcp server is a debian squeeze, and I am using the syslinux provided by debian.
Here is the pxelinux.cfg:
Code:
default fai-generated
label fai-generated
kernel vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-amd64
append initrd=initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64 ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/Data/fai/nfsroot boot=live FAI_FLAGS=verbose,sshd,createvt,debug FAI_ACTION=install
I might not understand well, but there is not COM32 modules.
And one quick question, does localboot should work because it doesn't:
Code:
default fai-generated
label fai-generated
localboot 0
Ok, finally I found my error. I tried to add some stuff near:
Code:
sub no_params {
print $q->header('text/plain'), <<"EOM";
#!gpxe
echo Loading PXE script for \${net0/mac}
chain $root_url/$myself?uuid=\${uuid}&mac=\${net0/mac}&ip=\${net0/ip}&hostname=\${hostname:uristring}&serial=\${serial:uristring}&manufacturer=\${manufacturer:uristring}&product=\${product:uristring}
EOM
return 1;
}
And made a mistake.
Sorry for the disturbance.
Regards,
JM
