Hi, I want to test, setup, learn, use a virtual environment.
I've got a very simple scenario. Booting a simple FreeDOS. FreeDOS is on an iSCSI target which comes from FreeNAS. DHCP server is a SuSE 9.3 Linux. Client is a 4.x Virtualbox which is running under WinXP. Almost everything is ready but when I try to boot FreeDOS, I got: Error loading operating system. Of course I'm not sure the iSCSI target image is correct. I did it half a year before. The messages when the system is booting: Loading ROM image ....... gPXE initialising devices... gPXE 1.0.1 -- Open Source Boot Firmware -- http://etherboot.org Feature: AoE HTTP iSCSI DNS TFTP bzImage COMBOOT ELF Multiboot NBI PXE PXEXT net0: 08:00:27:2c:61:a6 on PCI00:03:0 (open) [Link:up, TX:0 TXE:0 RX:0 RXE:0] DHCP (net0 08:00:27:2c:61:a6).... ok net0: 192.168.52.22/255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.52.254 Booting from root path "iscsi:192.168.52.60::::iqn.2010-12.hu.mavrt.bbf.fc:fdos-disk" Registered as BIOS drive 0x80 Booting from BIOS drive 0x80 Error loading operating system I "mounted" that disk under XP with iSCSI initiator without problem. The image was create from balder10 image and there are just a KERNEL.SYS and some inrelevant files and directories. I think the problem is related to the disk image which was created from balder10 image. The question: how can I make a bootable FreeDOS image under Linux and how can I check it in a virtual environment? The further goal would be a boot server setup installing Linuxes and other OSs from network with PXE.
