| 15:34.04 | raky | if i'm booting from a selection of distros, do i need to change the pxelinux.0 path for each distros pxelinux.0 file? see http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_pxe_install_server |
| 15:34.31 | raky | or can i just list the filename like 5 times for each path? |

| 15:35.56 | ScytheBlade1 | You can just configure pxelinux to PXE boot different distros |
| 15:36.04 | ScytheBlade1 | There's no need for multiple copies |
| 15:45.35 | raky | ok, but i'm still confused about the "pxelinux.0" filepath. i have so many copies of pxelinux.0 for these distros, but the example says to put no file path, only "pxelinux.0", ScytheBlade1 |
| 15:46.11 | ScytheBlade1 | The filepath specified in your dhcpd.conf is relative to the tftproot specified in your tftp server. |
| 15:46.51 | ScytheBlade1 | If you have /tftproot/pxelinux.0, with your TFTP server configured to serve files out of /tftproot |
| 15:46.58 | raky | wait, so when i choose which distro from the boot screen, it just grabs the correct pxelinux.0 file automatically? or does it grab the pxelinux.0 that i initially moved into the ./tftpboot folder? |
| 15:47.00 | ScytheBlade1 | You would specify "pxelinux.0" |
| 15:47.12 | ScytheBlade1 | No, it grabs THE pxelinux.0 |
| 15:47.23 | ScytheBlade1 | And then pxelinux uses it's configuration to boot the relative distro |
| 15:47.38 | raky | oh, the oh, the ./syslinux/pxelinux.0 file, since pxelinux.0 came with my syslinux package? |
| 15:47.44 | ScytheBlade1 | Yes |
| 15:47.49 | ScytheBlade1 | You use one (1) copy of it |
| 15:47.50 | raky | great, Sweet! |
| 15:47.58 | ScytheBlade1 | And then specify in the configuration files how you want it to work |
| 15:48.23 | ScytheBlade1 | Again, the wiki in the topic explains this in detail. |
