Hi All, 

Having been using unattended for a while I thought I would take a look at the 
PXE boot instead of the CD one. Having had a play and finally got it working I 
would now like to make one that has the correct server name,  share name and 
username and password that fit my environment. I managed to change the dosboot 
one by opening up the undis3c.imz with winimage and changing the appropriate 
line, but would prefer to use the linux one so it doesn't need to reboot after 
partitioning the disk. Having found the line that needs changing in 
linuxboot/misc/master I thought I woud see if I could build a new PXE boot image

I did a clean debian sarge install, undated the base install, installed cvs, 
unzip etc and installed the 2.6.8 kernel image. I then copied the three 4.6 
zips onto the box into /usr/src and unzipped them into a single folder 
structure. I then changed into the linuxboot direcory and did "make download" 
which run and eventually completed with no errors. I then did "make tftpboot" 
which ran untill it barfed out with the following


make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/unattended-4.6/linuxboot/linux-2.6.10'
[ -e linux-2.6.10/arch/i386/boot/bzImage ]
mkdir -p iso/isolinux/ ; cp -f linux-2.6.10/arch/i386/boot/bzImage 
iso/isolinux/bzImage.tmp ; mv -f iso/isolinux/bzImage.tmp iso/isolinux/bzImage
mkdir -p tftpboot/ ; ln -f iso/isolinux/bzImage tftpboot/bzImage.tmp ; mv -f 
tftpboot/bzImage.tmp tftpboot/bzImage
tools/mknod-cpio.pl < misc/devices.txt >| devices.cpio.tmp
/bin/sh: line 1: tools/mknod-cpio.pl: Permission denied
make: *** [devices.cpio] Error 126

on running it again it produces this 

debian:/usr/src/unattended-4.6/linuxboot# make tftpboot
tools/mknod-cpio.pl < misc/devices.txt >| devices.cpio.tmp
/bin/sh: line 1: tools/mknod-cpio.pl: Permission denied
make: *** [devices.cpio] Error 126

any suggestions gratefullly received

Arne
