Xiaobian to share with you how to install SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 application PXE, I hope you have something to gain after reading this article, let's discuss it together!

I. Prerequisites.

A computer with SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 installed to provide DHCP,TFTP,FTP services.

SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 installation image file sles-10-x86-cd1.iso_cd4.iso

3. The client has a network card that supports PXE boot.

2. Server settings. (IP Address 192.168.5.1)

1. Set up dhcp service.

Edit the file/etc/dhcpd.conf. Here is an example of a dhcpd.conf file.

default-lease-time 6000;

max-lease-time 72000;

ddns-update-style none; ddns-updates off;

subnet 192.168.5.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {

range 192.168.5.2 192.168.5.4;

option routers 192.168.5.1;

}

host lin {

hardware ethernet 00:11:25:68:a5:c6; #Client's NIC hardware address

fixed-address 192.168.5.2; #IP address assigned to client

server-name "192.168.5.1"; #Specify the IP address of TFTP

next-server 192.168.5.1;

filename "/tftpboot/pxelinux.0"; #Specifies the file containing the PXE boot program

}

Start dhcp service: # rcdhcpd start

2. Set up tftp service.

First check if tftp server software is installed on the system: Enter rpm -qa| grep atftp.

If prompted not to install, please install with Yast. (Note: SUSE Linux 10 does not have atftp installed by default)

Edit the/etc/sysconfig/atftpd file, which reads as follows

ATFTPD_OPTIONS="--daemon --user tftp -v"

ATFTPD_USE_INETD="no"

ATFTPD_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"(Note: /srv/tftp directory needs to be manually created)

Then add a tftp user: useradd -m tftp

Start tftp service: # rcatftpd start

3. Set up PXE boot environment

First make sure that syslinux packages are installed on your system. (Note: SUSE Liunx 10 has enterprisesyslinux installed by default)

run the following command

# cd /srv/tftp

# mkdir tftpboot

# cd tftpboot

# mkdir pxelinux.cfg

# cp /usr/share/syslinux/pxelinux.0 /srv/tftp/tftpboot

# vi /srv/tftp/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default

The requested URL/srv/tftp/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default was not found on this server.

default linux

prompt 1

timeout 30

label linux

kernel linux

append initrd=initrd splash=silent showopts

4. Load the installation image file

# mkdir /sles10

# mkdir /sles10/cd{1,2,3,4} (Note: Create directories cd1,cd2,cd3,cd4 under/sles10/)

# mount -o loop /mnt/wind/sles-10-x86-cd1.iso /sles10/cd1

# mount -o loop /mnt/wind/sles-10-x86-cd2.iso /sles10/cd2

# mount -o loop /mnt/wind/sles-10-x86-cd3.iso /sles10/cd3

# mount -o loop /mnt/wind/sles-10-x86-cd4.iso /sles10/cd4

Copy linux and initrd files from cd1 directory to/srv/tftp/tftpboot

# cd /sles10/cd1/boot/i386/loader

# cp linux /srv/tftp/tftpboot/

# cp initrd /srv/tftp/tftpboot/

5. Set up FTP service. Allow anonymous logins and set their login home directory to/sles10/.

The home directory for anonymous logins can be set by modifying the/etc/passwd file. as follows

ftp:x:40:49:FTP account:/sles10:/bin/bash

Start the FTP server.

(For detailed ftp server settings, please refer to the related information.)

III. Client installation

1. Set it to network boot in BIOS

2) Restart the computer. If the settings are correct, the system will automatically obtain IP.

3. Run until boot: Yes appears, enter the command

boot:linux install=ftp://192.168.5.1/cd1

(Note: install specifies the location of the ftp server and the location of the installation files; input is faster.)

4. Enter the SUSE Linux installation interface. For steps, please refer to the document Installing SUSE Linux on Hard Disk.

Enterprise 10》

/dev/sda8 /windows/M vfat users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true,codepage=936 0 A line like this is equivalent to

Code:mount -t vfat -o users,gid=users,umask=0002,utf8=true,codepage=936 /dev/sda8 /windows/M
