Hi Everyone,

Thanks for responding with different options. I was able to get this working by 
adding multiple parameters in quotes with option -K as mentioned below.

For everybody's reference here is what I have used with pxeboot and it worked,

pxeboot -a -K "nfs:<IP>:<location of ks config file> ksdevice=<network instance 
number>" -O
<OS version label> -s ttyS0,9600 <Linux Client hostname>

Thank you,
AN

Subject: Appending options with pxeboot command








Hi Folks,

I was wondering if there is way I can append ksdevice options when I execute 
pxeboot command. I am currently executing pxeboot command with below options,

pxeboot -a -K nfs:<IP>:<location of ks config file> -O <OS version label> -s 
ttyS0,9600 <Linux Client hostname>

I am looking to append ksdevice=<network instance number>.

Thanks,
AN.

You should be able to append anything via pxeboot that you can
via a regular CD install.  Just make sure you don’t try to pass more
than 255 characters or it will truncate the line.

Subject: networkmanger fails in network config on boot rescue

Hi, newest Fedora 11 , build with pungi ,
when I select a installation from url, netwokmanager always fails to get
IP . its a nic , and try to run wpasupplicant !? 
 
How I tell on grub to not use networkmanger and use the service
network ? 
 
I need to use dhcp 
 
reading this ML some one suggest 
label one
   kernel vmlinuz
   append initrd=initrd.img text nofb gateway=1.2.3.1 dns=1.2.3.4 
netmask=255.255.255.0 ks=url_of_ks_file method=url_of_satellite
 
but I'd like disable networkmanager since since service network works
well and NetworkManager don't. I try this on office where I need dhcp .
and at home with a simple router .
 
 
Thanks,

Hi Folks,
I was wondering if there is way I can append ksdevice options 
when I execute pxeboot command. I am currently executing pxeboot command with 
below options,
pxeboot -a -K nfs:<IP>:<location of ks config 
file> -O <OS version label> -s ttyS0,9600 <Linux Client 
hostname>
I am looking to append ksdevice=<network instance 
number>.
 
The way i 
have done this in the past is to quote it in with the -K option which should 
deliver what you want, there doesn't appear to be any validation of the input 
so 
it will put everything between the quotes straight in.
.
ie: 
pxeboot -K "nfs:foo ksdevice=eth0" 
etc....__________________________________________________________________
