Using nfs with fog

[synack]

Im trying to boot a live cd via tftp but that take ages to load so shouldn’t i be able to mount the iso to a dir on my pc and export it via nfs for faster speeds?

You might want to look into this.

[quote=“Bjorn Jentoft, post: 2149, member: 587”]It’s a known fact that tftp is not the fastest protocol out there. Bigger files transfer much better on http. If you exchange [B]pxelinux.0[/B] with [B]gpxelinux.0[/B], http is supported. This will decrease loading time of ISO files substantially.

Your pxelinux.cfg/default would then contain something like this

LABEL winstall32
MENU LABEL Install Windows (all 32-bit)
LINUX memdisk
INITRD [url]http://myfogserver/iso/LiteTouchPE_x86.iso[/url]
APPEND iso raw

or

LABEL winpe
MENU LABEL WinPE
LINUX memdisk
INITRD [url]http://myfogserver/iso/mywinpe.iso[/url]
APPEND iso raw

Good luck, Bjorn[/quote]

the gpxelinux.0 can be grabbed from SYSlinux, [url]https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/[/url]
