2. Replace the lines kernel hpvoot_v.c32 with kernel vmlinuz. 3. Remove vmlinuz from the append line. NOTE: The paths to files on the TFTP server are vmlinuz and initrd.img. You must modify them to include any directories or naming conventions you may have on your TFTP server. Specifying the ISO Image Path For the PXE booted server to find the ISO Image, you must add the ISO Image path to the append line in the PXELINUX configuration file. Add the following arguments: iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice The iso1 parameter helps the PXE booted Smart Update Firmware DVD locate the ISO image. The iso1mnt parameter tells the PXE booted FWDVD where the iso1 image must be mounted. Your final configuration must be similar to the following example: label sos MENU LABEL Automatic Firmware Update Version 9.10 kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=AUTOMATIC iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice label vsos MENU LABEL Interactive Firmware Update Version 9.10 kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=MANUAL iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice You can add additional ISO images by specifying the additional iso# and iso#mnt arguments, for example: iso2=/path/to/iso2.iso iso2mnt=/mnt/iso2. Supported network file systems The following network file systems are supported for use with PXE booting: NFS: iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice NFS volumes are mounted with the following options: • -o ro • nolock Windows operating systems: iso1=smbfs://192.168.0.99/share/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice 16 Deployment options

2.
Replace the lines
kernel hpvoot_v.c32
with
kernel vmlinuz
.
3.
Remove
vmlinuz
from the append line.
NOTE:
The paths to files on the TFTP server are
vmlinuz
and
initrd.img
. You must
modify them to include any directories or naming conventions you may have on your TFTP
server.
Specifying the ISO Image Path
For the PXE booted server to find the ISO Image, you must add the ISO Image path to the append
line in the PXELINUX configuration file.
Add the following arguments:
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
The
iso1
parameter helps the PXE booted Smart Update Firmware DVD locate the ISO image.
The
iso1mnt
parameter tells the PXE booted FWDVD where the
iso1
image must be mounted.
Your final configuration must be similar to the following example:
label sos
MENU LABEL Automatic Firmware Update Version 9.10
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0
ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid
pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=AUTOMATIC
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
label vsos
MENU LABEL Interactive Firmware Update Version 9.10
kernel vmlinuz
append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0
ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid
pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=MANUAL
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
You can add additional ISO images by specifying the additional
iso#
and
iso#mnt
arguments,
for example:
iso2=/path/to/iso2.iso iso2mnt=/mnt/iso2.
Supported network file systems
The following network file systems are supported for use with PXE booting:
NFS:
iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
NFS volumes are mounted with the following options:
-o ro
nolock
Windows operating systems:
iso1=smbfs://192.168.0.99/share/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
