Public bug reported: Hello, I'd like to boot e.g. a normal Ubuntu ISO Image from network like this: - Boot minimal system (e.g. kernel + initrd) from PXE / tftp - initrd downloads big ISO from my HTTP server into RAM (I've got plenty) - continue as usual.
My constraints are that I want to boot a diskless computer (no hdd, no cdrom) from PXE and that I need to unplug the ethernet cable after boot is finished. >From what I understand, this should be possible with casper, all that's needed is some combination of "netboot" and "toram" ** Affects: casper (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1637237 Title: Feature request: boot iso image from http server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1637237/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
