I don't think pxelinux can boot GNU/Hurd, because it does not support multiboot. You need to use pxegrub and give it the same kind of configuration as is on the installation CDs. You can find an example of config file on git://git.debian.org/git/d-i/debian-installer.git in build/boot/hurd/grub-hurd-pxe.cfg which has however never been tested, patches welcome. > (a) ext2fs.static > (b)/boot/kernel/ld.so.1 for execing the kernel ?? gnumach is the kernel. ld.so.1 is for exec, which starts the rest of the Hurd. ext2fs.static provides /, and the initrd line provides the initial ram disk. All three are essential to get anything working. > Am i missing something obvious like pxelinux boots only linux kernels and > hence > named pxelinux ?? It was never meant to boot anything else than Linux, yes. Samuel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
