According to the code, that message just means it is going to try to DHCP the host:
http://trac.systemimager.org/browser/branches/4.2.x/initrd_source/skel/etc/init.d/functions#L968 And it looks like it is trying to, but failed. Is dhcpd running on your server (did you run si_mkbootserver)? Did SystemImager correctly identify your nic and is using the correct one to DHCP? Any reason why you're using a bridge interface (br0) as opposed to standard ethernet interface? BTW, this is a quick start guide on how to use SystemImager: http://wiki.systemimager.org/index.php/Quick_Start_HOWTO Cheers, Bernard On Thu, Apr 28, 2011 at 10:07 AM, E-Blokos <in...@e-blokos.com> wrote: > Hi Bernard, > > yesterday (all the night) I tried to install a new node > at the data center, but I stucked with "ip address not set in pre-boot > settings" > weird since I did this commands . > > on golden client . > si_prepareclient --server node250 --my-modules > > on server : > si_getimage --golden-client node132 --update-script YES --image my_image > --listing --autodetect-disks --ip-assignment static --post-install reboot > > and > > si_mkclientnetboot --verbose --netboot --clients "10.10.10.140-10.10.10.158" > --flavor my_image --append "DEVICE=br0 IMAGESERVER=10.10.10.138 > GATEWAY=10.10.10.138 IMAGENAME=my_image" > > > I tried also > > si_mkclientnetboot --verbose --netboot --clients "node140" --flavor my_image > --append "DEVICE=br0 IMAGESERVER=10.10.10.138 GATEWAY=10.10.10.138 > IMAGENAME=my_image" > > si_mkclientnetboot --verbose --netboot --clients "node140" --flavor my_image > --append "DEVICE=br0 IMAGESERVER=10.10.10.138 GATEWAY=10.10.10.138 > IMAGENAME=my_image" > > > I have this in my dhcpd.conf > > subnet 10.10.10.128 netmask 255.255.255.224 { > range 10.10.10.140 10.10.10.158; > option domain-name "e-blokos.com"; > option routers 10.10.10.138; > } > host node140 { > fixed-address 10.10.10.140; > filename "pxelinux.0"; > next-server 10.10.10.138; > } > but the installer stops also at "ip address not set in pre-boot settings" > the installer shows also > dhclient.... > .... > DHCPDISCOVER port 67 interval 9 etc.... several times and it stops. > > the mobo is intel S5000PAL with xeon quadcore and 2 network ports. > > > Thanks for your help > > Franck > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software > The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network > management toolset available today.
