iscsi netboot ubuntu?
Posted: Thu Sep 01, 2011 1:19 am
Hi has anyone successfully booted fitpc2 via iscsi/gxpe etc?
i can install ubuntu server oneiric alpha 3 (it's the only version where diskless install actually works on iscsi without hacking around).
when i get to the gxpe boot it freezes at "booting from bios drive 0x80". I did install grub on the iscsi MBR as well.
Now the iscsi install definetely works from within a VM Ware so i'm thinking the fitpc2's bios doesn't quite work the same way...
anyone know what i'm talking about
?
thanks
