PXE Config Issues
Hey Folks,

I am trying hard to setup PXE COnfig for 'Stress Linux Distro'.

We already have a tftpboot setup for other distributions as well.

It loads the kernel fine but gets stuck while trying to do go over network registration (KIWI part I think)

I see the following part http://imgur.com/quJm8L8

I have also updated the KIWI/config.default with our TFTPBOOT IP

What do you think is going wrong here?

Hi,

it seems you don't have the KIWI folder in you tftpboot directory:

>> Check the default KIWI configuration (-> KIWI/config.default) and change the IP 10.10.10.1 to the IP of your tftp server

RE: PXE Config Issues
You need the KIWI folder in your tftp root (unfortunately it can't go in a subdir), and the image folder containing stresslinux.

You'll also need to edit KIWI/config.default and change the IP, filename and version. This is mine for stresslinux 32bit 1.0.1 (my server IP is 10.0.0.1):
IMAGE=/dev/ram1;stresslinux.i686;1.0.1;10.0.0.1;4096;compressed

Directory structure:
administrator:/srv/tftp$ ls -1 KIWI/ image/
image:
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.gz
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.kernel
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.kernel.3.11.10-21-default
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.kernel.3.11.10-21-default.md5
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.md5
initrd-netboot-suse-13.1.i686-2.1.1.splash.gz
stresslinux.i686-1.0.1.ext4
stresslinux.i686-1.0.1.gz
stresslinux.i686-1.0.1.md5
stresslinux.i686-1.0.1.packages
stresslinux.i686-1.0.1.verified

KIWI:
config.default

RE: PXE Config Issues
@HellFire, you successfully got the 32bit version bootet via PXE ? I never got it working without running into mem outs during boot.
Can you tell me the hardware specs of your machine you tried this on?

RE: PXE Config Issues
habe mir das neueste Release gezogen und Probleme mit dem login.
Weder root noch stress funktionieren und ein passwort lässt sich nicht eingeben.
Bitte um Hilfe!
