Hello,


  *I think I have managed to accomplish everything except this piece ,
  the documentation seems to lacking on the “ booting from the network “
  can you send me in the right direction. In my limited experience with
  pxelinux it seems to want a kernel to load. Otherwise it will just sit
  there and wait.*


first you need a tftp server and a dhcp server

you just have to put the content of the unattend cdrom's isolinux directory, in the /tftpboot directory

ll /media/cdrom0/isolinux/
total 10127
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root    2048 2007-03-29 10:09 boot.cat
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root 1304840 2007-03-28 19:09 bzimage
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root 9050960 2007-03-29 10:09 initrd
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root   11084 2007-03-29 10:09 isolinux.bin
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root root     282 2007-03-29 10:09 isolinux.cfg

2. in the tftpboot directory you need to add the pxelinux.0 boot file
with its config file
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root   11800 avr  5 16:40 pxelinux.0
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root    4096 avr  5 16:42 pxelinux.cfg

[content of the pxelinux.cfg file]
label linux
  kernel bzimage
  append initrd=initrd
  #kernel ua_0.2.kernel
-------

3. on the dhcp server
 group {
        next-server   ip.address.of.tftpserver;
        filename "/unattend/pxelinux.0";  ##the pxe boot file

 host pc_to_install {
                hardware ethernet 00:06:5B:40:8A:C3 ;
                fixed-address xx.yy.zz.uu ;
        }
 }



  *Thanks,*

 Frank Tavenner
