pxe boot file

[oxide54]

Does any one know of a PXE boot file that exists that just boots either from first HD or just next bios order.

 

ie a dummy one.

you can chainload using chain.32

Comboot/chain.c32 - Syslinux Wiki

 

It's included in syslinux:

 

rpm -ql syslinux | grep chain

/usr/share/syslinux/chain.c32

 

 

basically, I think you need to edit your /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default to look something like:

 LABEL Local Disk
          kernel chain.c32
          append hd0
          MENU DEFAULT
          MENU LABEL Boot from hard disk
          TEXT HELP
                Boot from the local hard drive.
  
          ENDTEXT

 

Of course, you could add an option for network booting various kernels and protect them via a password.
