Hi, I tried to install debian via PXE. following the doc, I install netboot.tar.gz which contains pxe file. I configured the dhcpd.conf here is relevant part :
host 00016CB3066E{ # MAC hardware ethernet 00:01:6C:B3:06:6E; fixed-address 172.19.6.224; server-name debian225; next-server debian225; filename "/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.0"; } I decompressed netboot.tar in /var/lib/tftpboot , I installed tftpd-hpa first problem: the file contains /etc/default/tftpd-hpa RUN_DAEMON="no" OPTIONS="-l -s /var/lib/tftpboot" so the standalone tftpd-hpa is disabled, ?? While the file /etc/inetd.conf contains the good line tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot When I boot a remote machine, I get correct address from the dhcp, but the error is : file not found tftp error ????? why I declared pxelinux0 in the /var/lib/tftpboot question: must I run a standlone /tftpd-hpa or thru inetd, where I have to declare pxelinux0 for the connection thanks a lot bela
