Hello,
I am trying to boot x86 solaris 10 8/07 via a system running fed7 and
syslinux 3.62.
If I use pxelinux I get the kernel to boot but it doesn't load my
network drivers for the Broadcom II nic. I rebuilt the kernel
(x86.miniroot) for solaris with the Broadcom nic drivers but it still
didn't work.
I read some stuff where people were using pxegrub and booting pxegrub.0
but that didn't work for me.
I setup /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default to-
LABEL Solaris x86
kernel pxegrub.0
I get in.tftpd[19579]: tftp: client does not accept options and nothing
happens??
I have /tftpboot/menu.lst01001c23d089c7 with the correct info but it
doesn't boot or load??
#pragma ident "@(#)install_menu 1.1 05/09/01 SMI"
#
default=0
timeout=0
title Solaris Jumpstart
kernel /tftpboot/solaris/multiboot kernel/unix -B
install_config=10.32.2.55:/jumpstart/Jump10x,sysid_config=10.32.2.55:/ju
mpstart/
Jump10x/config,install_media=10.32.2.55:/jumpstart/Jump10x,install_boot=
10.32.2.55:/jumpstart/Jump10x/boot
kernel / tftpboot/solaris/x86.miniroot
Anyone have success or insight on this?
Thanks in advance,
Anthony
