Hi folks,
I've followed a set of instructions I found on http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/centos_linux_guides/centos_enterprise... which describes using system-config-netboot to set up PXE booting.
I used a CentOS-4.3 install (custom, all options de-selected, then anaconda-busybox installed after the fact) as a reference/base. I followed the instructions, extrapolating a bit as the window defining the diskless client has more options than those presented in the example.
When I boot the PXE client, it does the pivot root operation, and finally concludes with:
SELinux: Disabled at runtime SELinux: Unregistering netfilter hooks
...at which point it hangs for ever.
I have tried performing a yum -y update on my reference system, then recreating the root mount point, but it fails the same way.
I should probably mention that both the reference and diskless client are identical hardware, and that the hardware has successfully PXE booted a diskless OS (a RedHat 8.0 as it happens) in the past.
The lack of any information on the web implies that I'm doing something trivially incorrect, can anyone tell me what it is?
Thanks for any hints or pointers you can provide.
I just can say that I had the same problem with centos 4.5. Seems that centos is a little buggy on this.
