Re: [ovirt-users] PXE boot of oVirt Node 4.1

Hi Information on ovirt.org is about old node, from oVirt 4.0 we have NextGeneration Node (NGN). I don't use cobbler, but for PXE I can provide what worked for me. Take iso from: http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/ovirt-4.1/iso/ovirt-node-ng- installer/, unpack it ( simple mount -o loop; cp -r ): pxelinux.cfg/ovirt-node.menu: ... LABEL ovirt NGN KERNEL http://websrv/your_unpacked_iso/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=http://websrv/your_unpa cked_iso/images/pxeboot/initrd.img inst.stage2=http://websrv/your_unpacked_iso/ inst.ks=http://websrv/your_unpacked_iso/my.ks ipappend 2 Kickstart file to automate a lot of tasks for me "my.ks": ​​install lang en_US.UTF-8 keyboard us rootpw --plaintext 123 network --bootproto=dhcp timezone --utc Europe/Prague firewall --service=ssh liveimg --url=http://websrv/your_unpacked_iso/ovirt-node-ng-image. squashfs.img # partitioning - nuke and start fresh zerombr clearpart --all --initlabel autopart --type=thinp bootloader --location=mbr reboot %post --erroronfail imgbase layout --init %end Basically liveimg --url ... & autopart & %post part should be enough for interactive install. I hope I made it at least a little bit clearer. ​ -- Pavol Brilla On Thu, May 25, 2017 at 5:41 PM, Christopher Young <mexigabacho(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > I've been wondering the same.
