PXE advanced boot config file loc

[Joe Taylor]

Hi,

Where’s the config file for pxe boot?

[Tom Elliott]

For what?

[Joe Taylor]

Hi

Its for the PXE boot advanced menu

I followed something from your psot about bypassing pxe host registration and it came up with the MAC address invalid error.

Its so that I can have a menu and select the images from menu rather than registering every time for all the machines

Going bakc to that post but I honestly can’t make the invalid MAC address error go away

[Tom Elliott]

Well,

I need info.

For example, what fog are you running?

[Joe Taylor]

Its for fog version 1.2

Current:

:MENU
menu
item --gap Please Select one of the images below
item fog.local Boot from hard disk
item img1 Windows 7 x64 Home Premium
item img2 Lenovo
item return Return to main menu
choose --default fog.local target && goto ${target}
:fog.local
sanboot --no-describe --drive 0x80 || goto MENU
:img1
kernel bzImage root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=192.168.1.1 web=${fog-ip}/fog/ consoleblank=0 loglevel=4 type=down img=Windows7x64HP ftp=${fog-ip} imgType=n osid=5 storage=${fog-ip}:/mnt/sdc1/fog/images capone=1 imgFormat=1
imgfetch init.xz
boot || goto MENU
:img2
kernel bzImage root=/dev/ram0 rw ramdisk_size=127000 ip=dhcp dns=192.168.1.1 web=${fog-ip}/fog/ consoleblank=0 loglevel=4 type=down imgid=2 img=Lenovo ftp=${fog-ip} imgType=mpa osid=5 storage=${fog-ip}:/mnt/sdc1/fog/images capone=1 imgFormat=0
imgfetch init.xz
boot || goto MENU
:return
chain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=mac=00:00:00:00:00:00[/url] || goto MENU
autoboot

[Tom Elliott]

So that’s in your advanced menu?

chain [url]http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=mac=00:00:00:00:00:00[/url] || goto MENU
autoboot[/quote]

The above line is wrong.

It should, literally be:
[code]chain http://${fog-ip}/${fog-webroot}/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac} || goto MENU[/code]

[Joe Taylor]

Ahha perfect mate!

So when in the above fourm link posted (where you say oyu need to add the mac:0: etc to the system) is that to that image string?

[Joe Taylor]

All is now working perfect!

Thanks Tom!!

the money can potentially buy a beer (but most likely will be used to pay for server hosting or other expenses for the project incurs)
