Hi,

Our pxe server setup is used by users to install on many different x86 machines. Most of these systems have multiple disks. In our current setup no target is specified in the manifest file for installation, therefore the automated installer chooses the first disk it finds. Very often this is not the first device in the users BIOS boot menu and not the disk on which the user wants the OS to be installed on. It would also be difficult to specify the target device by logical device name or MPXIO name in the manifest file since we would not know what this name would be for different systems. Is there some other mechanism by which the OS can be installed on the first disk in BIOS or can a user specify where the install should take place?

Thanks
Anna
