If you have to boot pretty often, you'll appreciate to speed the things up
|
||
|
|
a little.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here's what we use: the GRUB feature to boot from the network using the
|
||
|
|
DHCP protocol and the TFTP protocol.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here's the "menu.lst" to do that:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-=-=--
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
timeout 0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
title linux
|
||
|
|
dhcp
|
||
|
|
tftpserver 192.168.1.17
|
||
|
|
kernel (nd)/tftpboot/gc/vmlinuz ramdisk=32000 vga=788
|
||
|
|
initrd (nd)/tftpboot/gc/network.rdz
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-=-=--
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The option "tftpserver" is used to override the tftpserver address given
|
||
|
|
as an answer by the DHCP server. That way, you'll not need to bother your
|
||
|
|
system administrator to modify his dhcp server configuration.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The directory /tftpboot seems to be the only one defaultly accepted by the
|
||
|
|
server, and its subdirs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Of course, your GRUB needs to be compiled with the specific code for your
|
||
|
|
network card; use ./configure --help in the GRUB build dir for more infos.
