Package: di-netboot-assistant
Version: 0.36
Severity: normal
I installed di-netboot-assistant on a Hardy box that was already doing
netbooting, with the following dnsmasq.conf:
bogus-priv
dhcp-authoritative
dhcp-boot=net:PXE,debian-installer/pxelinux.0
dhcp-leasefile=/var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
dhcp-range=192.168.67.151,192.168.67.254,12h
dhcp-range=192.168.68.151,192.168.68.254,12h
dhcp-vendorclass=PXE,PXEClient
domain-needed
enable-tftp
expand-hosts
interface=eth1.2
interface=eth1.3
local=/lan/
localise-queries
no-negcache
read-ethers
tftp-root=/var/lib/tftpboot
I then ran
di-netboot-assistant install hardy --arch=i386,amd64
PXE loads pxelinux.0 correctly, which prints something I haven't seen
before:
TFTP prefix: debian-installer/
This is because pxelinux.0 isn't in the root directory
(i.e. /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0). This then causes problems when I
press Enter (or run menu), namely it tries to access
debian-installer/debian-installer/pxelinux.cfg/menu.c32. If I
manually type "pxelinux.cfg/menu.c32" at the boot: prompt, I can get
the menu to come up, but none of the choices work (because they're
doing debian-installer/debian-installer/... too).
This is probably a change in syslinux or Ubuntu's d-i rather than
di-netboot-assistant's fault, but it'd be really awesome if
di-netboot-assistant could magically detect this difference and work
around it.
