Hi, I have hit one more dead end :(. After I click on the "Build" button, I get the message "Host xxx enabled for installation boot away". And I can see a link created in "/tftpboot/linux-install/pxelinux.cfg" with the MAC address of the machine being rebuilt.
However, the symlink points to a non-existent destination in the same directory. Example. *lrwxrwxrwx 1 puppet puppet 15 Feb 22 11:15 01-00-1b-78-32-44-90 -> RedHat-4-x86_64* Any help?
