| 20:36.29 | *** join/##pxe jrosental (n=jrosenta@200.75.143.166) |
| 20:36.34 | jrosental | anybody alive? |
| 20:36.58 | intarwebz | i am, are you a questioner or an answerer? |
| 20:42.12 | jrosental | :S |
| 20:42.21 | jrosental | you could be more kind |
| 20:42.45 | jrosental | i am having problems with tftpd to see my pxelinux.bin file |
| 20:42.49 | jrosental | i dont know why |
| 20:42.51 | intarwebz | eh? no offense intended... |
| 20:42.58 | ScytheBlade1 | jrosental: check your file system premissions |
| 20:43.00 | jrosental | i am starting it with -s /var/lib/tftpboot |
| 20:43.01 | intarwebz | oh ok, is your tftpd server running? |
| 20:43.06 | jrosental | intarwebz, yes |
| 20:43.26 | intarwebz | what error are you7 getting? |
| 20:43.33 | intarwebz | does your nfs mount properly? |
| 20:44.01 | jrosental | it doesnt find my pxelinux.bin file |
| 20:44.05 | jrosental | in fact |
| 20:44.11 | intarwebz | pxelinux.0? |
| 20:44.14 | jrosental | it doesn't "see" any file |
| 20:44.20 | jrosental | if i create a file under the root |
| 20:44.31 | jrosental | ./var/lib/tftpboot |
| 20:44.36 | jrosental | and do |
| 20:44.38 | jrosental | tftp |
| 20:44.42 | jrosental | and then get test |
| 20:45.20 | intarwebz | um, i think tftpboot should be /tftpboot, not /var/lib/tftpboot |
| 20:45.29 | ScytheBlade1 | That's just semantics |
| 20:45.30 | jrosental | it doesn't matter |
| 20:45.37 | jrosental | it can be any directory in fact |
| 20:46.10 | intarwebz | oh ok |
| 20:46.12 | ScytheBlade1 | jrosental: chmod 777 and try it |
| 20:47.10 | jrosental | it says me: usage: get host:file host:file ... file, or get file file ... file if connected |
| 20:47.28 | ScytheBlade1 | What tftp client and server are you using? |
| 20:48.20 | jrosental | er |
| 20:48.28 | jrosental | tftp the one that brings with debian etch |
| 20:48.38 | jrosental | and tftp server tftpd |
| 20:50.28 | ScytheBlade1 | That's frustrating. |
| 20:50.33 | ScytheBlade1 | Check the man pages for more info? |
| 20:51.33 | jrosental | :s |
| 20:53.23 | ScytheBlade1 | Okay, let's ignore that/ What exactly is the problem? |
| 20:53.32 | ScytheBlade1 | Line for line, you boot a client, what's the error on the screen? |
| 20:54.01 | jrosental | it keeps saying |
| 20:54.18 | jrosental | Trying to load pxelinux.cdf/<IP in hex> |
| 20:54.32 | jrosental | and so.. until it doesn't find the image and the machine reboots |
| 20:54.47 | ScytheBlade1 | ... it found your pxelinux binary fine |
| 20:54.53 | jrosental | the problem is that it is not seeing my pxelinux |
| 20:54.55 | ScytheBlade1 | You need to read up on how to configure and work pxelinux |
| 20:54.57 | ScytheBlade1 | It is |
| 20:55.05 | jrosental | how do u know? |
| 20:55.09 | ScytheBlade1 | That error is given to you from the pxelinux binary |
| 20:55.35 | ScytheBlade1 | http://pxe.dev.aboveaverageurl.com/index.php/PXE_Booting#pxelinux |
| 20:55.39 | ScytheBlade1 | I'd recommend reading that |
| 20:56.19 | jrosental | i am gonna delete everything and start again from scratch |
| 20:57.01 | ScytheBlade1 | I'd really recommend that you read the link just the same :) |
