wget http://mirror.stream.centos.org/9-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz --max-redirect=0 --no-hsts
Hello everybody,
I am using pxelinux to install centos stream 9 systems but this stopped working a while ago with mirror.stream.centos.org because it started forcing HTTPS and pxelinux is HTTP only.
Could we please make the mirror.stream.centos.org HTTP available again please?

I believe the recommended configuration is to have vmlinuz and initrd.img on the same tftp server you use for the PXE boot loader.

I use a lot of other distributions as well, and debian, ubuntu, all offer HTTP for their mirrors.
This way an update is directly used, I used to download the vmlinux if it gets out of date it gives weird errors when loading the kernels further in the process.
Thank you in advance for making the mirror.stream.centos.org work with HTTP again and letting users choose between HTTP and HTTPS.
Kind regards,

Mirrors served by the mirror.stream.centos.org alias will remain accessible only via https. You can find a mirror close to you that supports http on this page: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mirrormanager/mirrors/CentOS/9-stream/x86_64

If you really must load directly from remote sites, you can set up your own local proxy (nginx should be able to do this for example).
