o
Extract the ISO image using a third-party tool.
5.
Copy all the files from the
/system directory
of the CD to your TFTP server so that it is accessible
by the TFTP software.
Configure PXELinux
1.
Using the isolinux.cfg file from the /system/ directory of the CD as a guide, copy the labeled targets to
your PXELinux configuration file. You do not need to include the entire file:
label sos
MENU LABEL HP ProLiant Offline ACU Image
kernel hpboot_v.c32
append vmlinuz 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
label vsos
MENU LABEL HP ProLiant Offline ACU Image
kernel hpboot_v.c32
append vmlinuz 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
2.
Replace the lines
kernel hpboot_v.c32
with
kernel vmlinuz.
3.
Remove
vmlinuz
from the append line.
The paths to the 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.
Specify 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/acucd/image/hpacuoffline-8.75-12.0.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
The iso1 parameter helps the PXE-booted ACU Offline CD locate the ISO image. The iso1mnt parameter tells
the PXE-booted ACUCD where the iso1 image must be mounted.
Your final configuration must be similar to the following example:
label sos
MENU LABEL HP ProLiant Offline ACU Image
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/acucd/image/hpacuoffline-8.75-12.0.iso
iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
label vsos
MENU LABEL HP ProLiant Offline ACU Image
