2.
Replace the lines kernel hpvoot_v.c32 with kernel vmlinuz.
3.
Remove vmlinuz from the append line.
NOTE:
modify them to include any directories or naming conventions you may have on your TFTP
server.

Specifying the ISO Image Path

For the PXE booted server to find the ISO Image, you must add the ISO Image path to the append
line in the PXELINUX configuration file.
Add the following arguments:
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
The iso1 parameter helps the PXE booted Smart Update Firmware DVD locate the ISO image.
The iso1mnt parameter tells the PXE booted FWDVD where the iso1 image must be mounted.
Your final configuration must be similar to the following example:
label sos
MENU LABEL Automatic Firmware Update Version 9.10
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0
ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid
pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=AUTOMATIC
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
label vsos
MENU LABEL Interactive Firmware Update Version 9.10
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0
ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid
pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=MANUAL
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
You can add additional ISO images by specifying the additional iso# and iso#mnt arguments,
for example:
iso2=/path/to/iso2.iso iso2mnt=/mnt/iso2.
