cobbler buildiso produces the same menu. To do it dynamically requires investing some more work in the Fedora-liveCD based "Cobber live CD" which I was working on a few weeks ago. There is some black magic that needs to be done to make it interactive though. This is something I want to do but is on the back burner for a while. If someone would like to have a go at it, I did add the code to koan to allow prompting for the live CD case -- the trick though is tweaking the actual live CD config to make it visable versus just showing the login prompt, etc. > Ideally I'd like some way to get the booting servers to the TFTP > server, then let > the usual cobbler mechanisms take place (per-system settings etc. > pulled by MAC address). > FWIW, The live CD does this, but all over HTTP, it doesn't need TFTP. > Thanks! > _______________________________________________ > cobbler mailing list > [email protected] > https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler > _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
