Hi list, Im trying to install win7 (32bit professional) directly to an iscsi-Target (linux-iscsi, kernel 3.2.6), given by ipxe (undiolnly.kpxe).
First I created a WinPE (3.0, with iscsi-support) which boots fine. Then I connected to a free iscsi-Target ( 20 GB ) of a Linux-iscsi Target, works fine. Then I startet setup.exe of a win7 disk and wantet to install to this target. It came a failure "cannot install to ... because the ibft is empty" or sth like this. Now i created an alternative netboot via sanhooking the 20G disk an sanbooting then the winpe-disk via ipx. The result was a free 20G iscsi-disk, which i was able to mount persistantly via iscsicli-command. I started the setup.exe again and then i got the failure " .. cannot be installed. The hardware of the computer doesnt probably not support booting .. Be sure, that the controllerof the disk ist activated in the bios". Ok, the message was in german, so the english is probably ;-) not exactly the same like in an english installation. Now i dont know what to do now. It is also strange, that i cant take the builtin disk for installing also, if i boot winpe. The win7-disk is taken by samba-ressource. Client is a q5010 fujjitsu-siemens with dualcore, 2gb ram, intel 82xxx gbit cat. Server is an Thinkpad X61 dualcore 4gb ram intel 82566MM gbit nic. Whats wrong here? Tfh!
