Trying to make a debain live PXE server, using tftpd-hpa I read http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/amd64/ch04s05.html.en, and did:
#cd /srv/tftp #wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz #tar xzf netboot.tar.gz #wget http://live.debian.net/cdimage/release/next+nonfree/amd64/netboot/debian-wheezy-live-rc1-amd64-lxde-desktop+nonfree.netboot.tar #tar xf debian-wheezy-live-rc1-amd64-lxde-desktop+nonfree.netboot.tar #chmod -R a+r * I found it confusing, that http://live.debian.net/cdimage/release/next+nonfree/amd64/netboot/debian-wheezy-live-rc1-amd64-lxde-desktop+nonfree.netboot.contents and tar tf debian-wheezy-live-rc1-amd64-lxde-desktop+nonfree.netboot.tar does not match. I tried #cd /srv/tftp #sudo rm pxelinux.* #ln -s ./tftpboot/pxelinux.tmp/pxelinux.0 pxelinux.0 #ln -s ./tftpboot/pxelinux.tmp/pxelinux.cfg pxelinux.cfg the PXE boot stops with an error: Couldn't find kernel image: vesamenu.c32 then I went though http://live.debian.net/manual/3.x/html/live-manual/the-basics.en.html#235 moved the debian-live files to /srv/debian-live and changed the tftp root then PXE boot couldn't find pxelinux.0 Then I moved the files in /srv/debian-live/tftpboot/pxelinux.tmp to /srv/debian-live/tftpboot now I get options to install (that doesn't work), but no "live" It will be much appreciated if someone could point to a webpage with a working example on getting a PXE server running on a standard debian installation with the pre-built netboot tar files.
