Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
Hypervisor used: Virtual Boxmy personal computer (Ubuntu 19.10)
Specs --> check t495It is running okay I guess.
Can you advise me how to create netboot for the following OS Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop?
So, guys how can I create a network boot of Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop over Ubuntu 18.04 Server (fog here)
I get sorta the idea with the images but how to really create them also how to make my second vBox host recognize the netboot ??? virtual switch??? sort of a bridge?? -
I have a tutorial on how to (reuse) fog to be used as a netboot server here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images
For PXE booting you need to have a dhcp server where you can configure dhcp options 66 and 67. If you are in a home lab with a soho router then you should install dnsmsaq onto your fog server to provide pxe boot info in place of your soho router. Your soho router will still provide dhcp services, just dnsmasq will provide the netboot into.

As for virtual box settings, I don’t know.
