Re: PXE Booting Vmware View Linux Client w/Ubuntu (Not using LTSP)

$

Hello,

 

I am trying to do the same PXE boot directly to vmview client.

 

You guys ever heard of this nice awesome thing: http://repurpose.vmwarecloud.at/

 

It generates iso file with all the settings, custom background everything.

 

It uses Tiny Core as a base

 

My problem is this, i cannot for the life of me get it to boot over PXE. TC boots fine but the extensions that are supposed to load with it do not.

i tried with pxelinux.0 with tftplist command(it fetches the extensions seperatly via tftp) i am trying now with grldr loader to try boot iso directly. all i ever get is it boots to command prompt.

 

my menu.lst

 

 

title vmview to 0xFF
pxe keep
map --mem (pd)/iso/tc.iso (0xFF)
map --hook
root (0xFF)
chainloader (0xFF)
any help would be appriciated. Maybe it just needs some other params in the menu.lst?
Bottom line.. how to PXE boot iso image that gets generated with http://repurpose.vmwarecloud.at/
as it works fine if you mount it as CD image then boot the VM by choosing boot from CD.
