Hi Jason, That problem below is resolved now. The xpbsmonrc was so huge ( for some reason it had 23 mb), that evidently the script couldn't handle it... Geting back to the client installation problem I can collect the MAC addresses of the clients if I boot from Etherboot ROM image floppy, but then when I want to install it I get the message: [...] Searching for DHCP server Me: 10.8.8.12 server 10.8.8.8 gateway 10.8.8.8 Loading 10.8.8.8:pxelinux.0 ...error:not a valid image Unable to load file <sleep> <abort> etc...
What am I doing wrong ? Cheers, Daria > > Hello, > Jason, thank you very much for your advice about PXE booting. > I did manage to collect the ethernet addresses.
