The attached patch adds support for turning a liveCD ISO image into a network-bootable PXE image.


Thanks for the work. However, for this to be of any real use we're going to need some way to integrate this into an existing PXE boot and /tftpboot configuration. What I would like to be able to do is specify the tftp root directory, the subdirectory to put the kernel and initrd images, and a name for the boot file. In my case I would do something like:

/tftpboot/ks/live/devel/minimal/{vmlinuz0,initrd0.img}

/tftpboot/ks/pxelinux.cfg/live.devel-minimal :

DEFAULT pxeboot
TIMEOUT 20
PROMPT 0
LABEL pxeboot
        KERNEL /live/devel/minimal/vmlinuz0
APPEND initrd=/live/devel/minimal/initrd0.img root=/livecd-fedora-minimal-200802111321.iso rootfstype=iso9660 rootflags=loop
ONERROR LOCALBOOT 0

And also have it not try to create pxeboot.0 and pxelinux.cfg.

So, something like:

livecd-iso-to-pxeboot --tftproot=/tftpboot/ks --imagedir=live/devel/minimal --bootfile=live.devel-minimal livecd-fedora-minimal-200802111321.iso

to create the above.
