Network booting and installation of Ubuntu Linux


mount -t iso9660 -o loop ubuntu.iso /var/www/ubuntu
ln -s /var/www/ubuntu /tftboot

in /etc/dhcpd3/dhcpd.conf

ping-check = 1;
filename = "ubuntu/install/netboot/pxelinux.0";
subnet 192.168.1.0
netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.254;
}

install atftp
run atftpd as:

killall inetd
atftpd --daemon --no-fork --bind-address 192.168.1.1 /var/www/

- make sure one of the interfaces (eth0, eth1 etc.) is bound to 192.168.1.1
- make sure apache is running}
