• Setup a dhcp server. The subnet where the machines are installed needs the addi-
tional lines:
filename "pxelinux.0";
next-server 192.168.1.115;
In this example, 192.168.1.115 is the ip address of the PXE server pxe.example.com.
• Configure a PXE server as described in
(page 212). When editing /srv/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default, add
the following entries:
default bootinstall
label bootinstall
• Setup a ftp server and copy your prepared preload image to /srv/ftp/preload/
preloadimage.raw.
Test your setup by booting the target system with PXE network boot. This will automat-
ically copy the prepared preload image to harddisk and switch off the machine when
ready.
