Since I got grub's pxe set to go, I have started to try the ideas & solutions. * Answer to my first question from previous post (I don't see a way where tftp-server would be able to serve-up the grub menu if it were in say /data/tftp path?): This seems not possible. TFTPD cannot chroot (-s) unless the folder structure is inside the jail. Setting to different NFS path gives "folder not found" error from tftpd. (posted for informational purposes) * grub-mknetdir creates 700 permission folder structure. It needs to be changed to 755 in order for tftpd to serve "core.0" (744 is insufficient). * grub-mknetdir folder is /data/amd64//boot/grub. I created a grub.cfg under there AND under i386-pc. The client shows "welcome to grub" message, then falls to "file not found". Was I supposed to pass the grub.cfg location when I ran grub-mknetdir? * Which insmod need for NFS exported folders? There's no nfs*.mod? * Since I have 3 separate NFS exports which grub will choose from on the menu, is it possible to create a "device.map" file with something like: (hd0,0) 192.168.2.1:/data/amd64 (hd0,1) 192.168.2.1:/data/i386 (hd0,2) 192.168.2.1:/data/isos That way, I could do and change set root='hd0,1 or 2 or 3' for each menu entry? Or is the device.map deprecated?
