Even so, there's other options. Many distros (centos and/or fedora qualify) have pre-built PXE-bootable images. Use pxelinux as your TFTP bootloader, use vmlinuz/initrd provided by the distro, an HTTP server to serve the installation DVD contents, and boot in rescue mode. A bit of a hassle for first time setup, but the same system allows for PXE installation, memtest86 can be run this way, etc.

We are looking to PXE boot a new NIC but have run into a few roadblocks in the process.

I'm asking here to see if anyone happens to have the time to compile a new kernel / bzimage for us who has the Atheros AR8132 chipset on a netbook.

Without the hardware I have no way of diagnosing / testing / etc.

I know it's a long shot but does someone happen to have a bit of time to help out?

Below are a few threads that cover the issue

We need a bzimage to load due to this TFTP booting.

Thanks in advance!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Any-nix-experts-out-there-in-compiling-drivers-23302432 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 14:05:02 EDT
