RE: xenserver unattended install with iPXE
If it is a headless server, you'll still need to find a way to get to the console. Does it have support for serial console? If so, you should use that.
Other than that, to boot into the xenserver installation you should be using something like this: http://ipxe.org/appnote/xenserver To get a wireless adapter to boot, you'll need to add an embedded script that sets ssid and key before it ifopens the wireless network interface. Although that would probably get you into the xenserver installer, my guess is that the xenserver installer has no way to get network connectivity with just a wifi adapter. You'll probably need to add a USB NIC of some kind to attach it with a cable. Unfortunately that USB NIC would not be supported by iPXE (yet), so you're kinda left with a beast of a boot method. If this is a one-off, I'd rather just install xenserver with a usb stick if you're just interested in getting the job done. |
