The good news is that with this merged: https://github.com/OpenIndiana/slim_source/pull/72 the install image supports network booting OOTB. The only problem is that the latest available install image at https://www.openindiana.org/download/ was created before the above PR got merged. To make the netboot working you just need to mount the ISO image on your NFS server, share the mounted ISO via NFSv3 and configure your PXE server properly (see `man pxeboot`). Without the above PR merged you would additionally need to manually mount the install media once OpenIndiana boots over PXE using the following command: mount -o vers=3 NFSSERVER:ROOTPATH /.cdrom HTH. -- +-------------------------------------------+ | Marcel Telka e-mail: mar...@telka.sk | | homepage: http://telka.sk/ | +-------------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org https://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
