Re: [Xen-users] [SOLVED] how to pxeboot dom0?



I can't figure out how to get xen/domain0 to pxeboot.

Would somebody be so kind as to post their pxeboot stanza for xen/dom0?


The key is to invoke grub's multiboot loader and then pass it xen, a kernel, and an initrd. Here's what worked for me.

/tftpboot/pxeboot.cfg/default

LABEL xen
  MENU LABEL fc6-xen 2.6.20-1.2948xen
  KERNEL mboot.c32
APPEND /images/xen.gz-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6 dom0_mem=262144 --- /images/vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6xen ro root=/dev/vg0/root rhgb quiet --- /images/initrd-2.6.20-1.2948.fc6xen.img

NB that the 3 hyphens are required between the APPEND sections and they are all on one line.


As a side note:

There is an easy to follow set of instructions for setting up a pxeboot environment at
