hi,
I am trying to install a client using systemimager + pxe combination. I have successfully been able to "si_prepareclient", "si_getimage" and "si_addclients". My DHCP server also seems to be working fine. When I switch on the client, it is able to receive an IP from the dhcp server, and it seems to be booting from the kernel image that it obtained from the server. However, the following error message, "nc: connect: Network is Unreachable", keeps repeating itself, in between the other messages, and finally says the installation failed! To me the error message looks self-contradictory! What could be wrong? ... Using option-140 as IMAGESERVER: 192.168.100.1 bound to 192.168.100.5 --- renewal in 43200 seconds. nc: connect: Network is Unreachable Overriding any DHCP settings with pre-boot settings from kernel append nc: connect: Network is Unreachable parameters. nc: connect: Network is Unreachable nc: connect: Network is Unreachable read_kernel_append_parameters nc: connect: Network is Unreachable nc: connect: Network is Unreachable nc: connect: Network is Unreachable ping_test nc: connect: Network is Unreachable Pinging your SystemImager server to ensure we have network connectivity. nc: connect: Network is Unreachable nc: connect: Network is Unreachable PING ATTEMPT 1: nc: connect: Network is Unreachable PING 192.168.100.1 (192.168.100.1): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.100.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.5ms --- 192.168.100.1 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 1.5/1.5/1.5 ms nc: connect: Network is Unreachable We have connectivity to your SystemImager server! nc: connect: Network is Unreachable nc: connect: Network is Unreachable ... and so on till it quits!! Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
