I guess my original question was regarding pxe configuration. Is it possible to select image from PXE user menu, F8 key. Perhaps I am passing wrong arguments in mkbootserver. Should I change anything on DHCP server side which is not a systemimager server. Are there any examples on how to configure tftpboot?
Thank you, Jarek

Did you reboot after the updateclient? If not - then the new kernel won't load into memory

Subject: Re: [Sisuite-users] Can I have two images for one
golden-client?
Ok. So I boot with rh 9.0 image and then do updateclient with rh 8.0 image. Uname -a tells me that the kernel is 2.4.20-30.9 but /etc/redhat-release claims that it's rh release 8.0. I am a bit puzzled.
I checked some other files and versions and for example glibc version is
2.2.93-5 which is distributed with rh 8.0. Is this runnig rh 9.0 or 8.0?
Thanks, Jarek

Jarek,
Please review the manual: http://www.systemimager.org/documentation/
I think you'll find that updateclient is what you want instead of pushupdate.
Also, you can have two images for one client. Just name them differently when you run "getimage", and use addclients to choose
which
one you want to install with at any given time.
If the partition scheme is the same, most importantly /etc/fstab, and the filesystems are of the same type, then you can run updateclient to switch between them. Otherwise, you can always just auto-install.

Hello,
Can I have two images for one golden-client? If yes, how would I go
set
it up. I'd like to have a RedHat 8.0 and 9.0 images available for network boot and being able to select which to boot from. I am using systemimager 3.1.8-1 for both server and client and systemimager-i386boot-standard-3.0.1-4.
I also tried to use pushupdate command but I get usage errors:
pushupdate --client 10.0.8.52 --server 10.0.8.95 --image hwn15-rh80
Unknown option: server Unknown option: image pushupdate (part of SystemImager) version 3.1.8

Any thoughts? Thanks.
