Booting iPXE without dhcp option 66 - naruto - 2012-10-20 17:40

Hello everyone,

Is there anyway to boot iPXE without DHCP option 66 in DHCP server configuration?

As I know the pxelinux supports booting without this option.

Thank you,

I'm not sure how pxelinux handles booting items without option 66 specified.

I personally have found that I can specify a full http path in 67 and thats enough to get iPXE to chain to that. Otherwise, you could do some embedded scripting (http://ipxe.org/scripting ) to get it to do what you want it to do.
