Summary
TFTPd (tftpd-hpa) is running and default a pxelinux based menu is served. At this point it is possible to:
- Run memtest
- Run debian and ubuntu installers
- Run partedmagic, a nice diskrescue oriented live linux desktop
Config
- Dhcpd (on NURDServices points to TFTPd (also on NURDServices) (using next-server option)
- Files are served from /tftpboot on NURDServices
Using HARKboot
- Connect your x86 PC/laptop using UTP (wifi won't work)
- Make sure "boot from LAN" is selected in your computer's BIOS
- Boot up your machine
You should end up with something like this:
Todo
- DOS image
- Netbootstuff on the internet
- Use iPXE or gPXE instead of pxelinux in order to make conditional stuff (serve sparc stuff for sun, etc)
