RE: Newbie on PXE/iPXE - help with wifi
I would recommend you start out with wired network first. Wireless is a bit trickier and there are lots of places to fall over. There are some tutorials linked over at http://networkboot.org, which you might find helpful.
The checklist is like this: 1. Setup a DHCP server on your local network to provide IP address and location of TFTP server and boot filename. 2. Setup a TFTP server that can provide the boot filename. Your DHCP server must point to this one. 3. Compile ipxe.pxe or undionly.kpxe (see http://rom-o-matic.eu/ if you don't have a Linux system available) and put it on the TFTP server. Alternatively you can use the iPXE CD (ipxe.iso) instead of step 2 and 3. The above method is called "chainloading" and is described here: http://ipxe.org/howto/chainloading Once this is working you can start with some iPXE scripting. You can find various examples at http://ipxe.org/examples. The scripts can be located on either the TFTP server or on a web server (HTTP). There are other options also, but that is for the more advanced. |
