[syslinux] Booting and installing from a Linux based ISO

[Vinícius Ferrão]

You need to create a preseed file for your Debian based distro.

Take an example from the based Debian upstream, for example:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Preseed

Setup the PXE server, load with the required distros, extracted ISO and configuration files with the preseed script. You’ll be able to create a completelly unattended install.

Thank you Vinicius for quick answer, problem is i've my product ISO which i want to use to install in a headless way, while these tutorials are talking about interactive way of installing the basic debian system - which works fine. Headless installation example i'm missing, if you have come across any such example kindly mention.
Thank you.

Hi,

I'm sorry if i've posted my issue into the wrong mailing list -- if so my
apologies..
I'm new to syslinux/pxelinux, I want to install my product ISO (debian
based) using pxe boot and i'm getting the issues of "No common CD Rom
found" and installation aborts. I just want to know if it is possible to
install product ISO in headless way?
I really did not get any example anywhere while googling it.

Thank you for help.
Regards
Ravi.
