Hi, I'm trying to build a network bootable Debian live build image. The version of live build which I am using is "live-build, version 3.0~a48-1". The Debian kernel which I am using is "Linux version 3.2.0-2-686-pae (Debian 3.2.20-1) ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-7) ) #1 SMP Mon Jun 11 18:27:04 UTC 2012". I have configured the basic options to build a network bootable live build image. While testing the image using tftp on a Dell Optiplex 790, I get the following error "Waiting for ethernet card(s) up.....if this fails,may be the ethernet card is not support by the kernel 3.2.0-3-686-pae?" I have searched on the internet but I didn't had any luck. So I thought of e-mailing you. Below are the logs from the tftp server: /var/log/syslog: Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17937]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17938]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.0 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17939]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17940]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.0 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17941]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17942]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/44454c4c-3500-1034-8037-b4c04f393253 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17943]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17944]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/01-78-2b-cb-a1-78-33 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17945]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17946]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A010F0E Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17947]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17948]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A010F0 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17949]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17950]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A010F Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17951]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17952]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A010 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17953]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17954]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A01 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17955]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17956]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A0 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17957]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17958]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0A Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17959]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17960]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/0 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17961]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17962]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17963]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17964]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/menu.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17965]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17966]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/stdmenu.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17967]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17968]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/live.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17969]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17970]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/install.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17971]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17972]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/vesamenu.c32 Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17973]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17974]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17975]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17976]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/menu.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17977]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17978]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/stdmenu.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17979]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17980]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/live.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17981]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17982]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/install.cfg Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive in.tftpd[17983]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:17 deblive tftpd[17984]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot/splash.png Aug 7 14:08:20 deblive in.tftpd[17985]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:20 deblive tftpd[17986]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot//live/vmlinuz Aug 7 14:08:21 deblive in.tftpd[17987]: connect from 10.1.15.14 (10.1.15.14) Aug 7 14:08:21 deblive tftpd[17988]: tftpd: trying to get file: /tftpboot//live/initrd.img I was wondering if you can point me in a right direction on how to build a workable network bootable Debian live image.
