Category: systemimager-client Group: v3.2.0 >Status: Pending Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: A Baggarley (abaggnc) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: PXE clients do not seem to find files Initial Comment: The clients get an IP address then they seem to locate the TFTP server but never start pulling files.... Here is what I see .... or think I see because it scrolls so quickly UNDI data segment at : 0097ZC0 UNDI data segment size: 58D0 UNDI code segment at: 009CB90 UNDI code segment size: 2470 PXE entry point founf (we hope) at 9CB9:00CC My IP adress seems to be 0A14E6C8 10.20.230.200 IP 10.20.230.200:10.20.230.132:10.20.230.1:255.255.255.0 TFTP prefix: Trying to load prelinux.cfg/0A14E6C8 Booting form local disk: opening: prelinux.cfg/0A14E6C8 opening: prelinux.cfg/0A14E6C opening: prelinux.cfg/0A14E6 opening: prelinux.cfg/0A14E opening: prelinux.cfg/0A14 opening: prelinux.cfg/0A opening: prelinux.cfg/0 opening: prelinux.cfg then there is a line or two more but they go by so quickly I can not get a pause... Does anyone have any idea what I am or am not doing right .... I need to image about 4000 machines and was hoping to use flamethrower with a PXE boot since the devices do not have a floppy controller onboard and mkautoinstalldiskette only associates the floppy drive with fd0-fd7, not my usb /sda ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Brian Elliott Finley (brianfinley) Date: 2004-10-18 23:05 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=140 First, I would have expected it to say "pxelinux.cfg/" instead of "prelinux.cfg". So, assuming that the only difference in this firmware is filenames (which may be a bad assumption) what you can do is the following, and it will probably work: cd /tftpboot mv pxelinux.cfg prelinux.cfg ln -s prelinux.cfg pxelinux.cfg # there may be some SI things that look for this cp prelinux.cfg/default prelinux.cfg/0 Then test your tftp configuration manually, to see if you can retrieve the default config file (now named "0"): cd /tmp/ tftp servername tftp> get prelinux.cfg/0 Received 173 bytes in 0.2 seconds tftp> Cheers! -Brian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ray Van dolson (rayvd) Date: 2004-10-18 19:19 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=31335 This exact thing happens on our HP DL140 server as well. These boxes have Broadcom BCM5704 gigabit cards in them. I get nearly the same output as above, except that it makes an attempt to read prelinux.cfg/default and then tries to boot from the hard disk (which of course fails). Maybe this is just an issue with my NIC. It seems HP has a PXE patch of some sort out for these systems, but as they only seem to come in .rpm format, they aren't too useful as far as applying to a virgin system. :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100259&aid=1029243&group_id=259 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
