Hey folks,
I saw the lastest qemu support pxe so I tried it using the following
command:
qemu -hda /tmp/a.img -net nic n- user -boot n
Note that now qemu support pxe mode, the mandatory -hda option is no
more mandatory but this is not directly linked to my patch.
I saw qemu integrates a dhcp & a tftp server but they don't seems to
be configured/developped for a pxe boot process.
Qemu says "no filename" and exits.
Hi Erwan,
I really like the idea of your patch. Of course, the hard coding is not
really reasonable :-) Also, PXE is an x86-ism. What you've really done
is added a mechanism to publish a BOOTP name. We do need to add a new
option too as one may want to use -boot n without publishing a BOOTP
filename.
Using your patch as a basis, I've written three patches. The first one
is the tsize negotiation fix for the TFTP server. The second adds a
-bootp option for specifying the location of the BOOTP image. The third
changes the -tftp option to take root directory. The end result, is
that now you can say:
qemu -hda /tmp/a.img -boot n -tftp ~/tftpboot -bootp /pxelinux.0
And you get the same results without the hard coding. What do you think?

Anthony Liguori
A friend of I asked me "how do you boot using pxe in qemu when you
don't have a dhcp & a tftp server ?".
So I started to look how we can do that, I modified bootp to catch the
field 60 of a dhcp request to find if its a pxe request or not.
If yes, I set the filename to "/pxelinux.0", currently this is
harcoded, maybe you can help me to find a better way to specify a
bootloader.
Then, I've patched the tftp server to change the default rootdir in my
home dir. "~/tftpboot". This is just for a Proof-of-concept, other
methods could be fine. We can also imagine searching in a path
restricted to the admin and then in the user dir. So it can give the
admin the ability of defining some pxe boot for all the vm of a
system or in the user dir if the user wants to have a special pxe
boot scheme.
The last patch I did on the tftp server, is to allow the tsize
negociation because pxelinux needs it.
This patch apply to 0.9.0, once it is applied and compiled here come
the test procedure:
create a ~/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg directory
copy pxelinux.0 in ~/tfptboot/
create a pxelinux configuration file called "default" in
~/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg
Et voila ;)
Just call "qemu -hda /tmp/a.img -net nic n- user -boot n", it will
start pxelinux.
I think this patch is very usefull because it give users & admin the
ability to use pxe inside the VM without installing the full
configuration (dhcp,tftp).
This patch is mainly a proof-of-concept, this patch can be improved,
comments and feedback are welcome.
