Missing pieces of the quickstart? #4
Description
Activity
Maybe you already figured it out. In case you still need it: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/dnsmasq#PXE_server
Hi,
I was a little bit confused, too. I recommend reading -> Networkboot FundamentalsIs there not the need to configure an iPXE server or target to boot from?
As you will see in the linked Documentation, the configuration "where to boot from" is configured in the DHCP.
But you can configure a fixed Server/URL to boot from in an ipxe script or in the ipxe command line. See: IPXE Chain command and IPXE scriptingOn booting ipxe press ctrl-b and you will get a neat command line tool.
Hi, I've tried out the quickstart guide and am currently stuck at the rainbow screen with a pi4. Additional information would be nice since the topic seems scarce. Or I lack the context to search for it effectively.
I hope I'm not highjacking this issue by joining the confusion.
Hi, I was wanting to try out this tool, but the quickstart seems to carry some implied knowledge, or be missing some steps:
1 Download sdcard.img and write it onto any blank micro SD card using a tool such as dd or Etcher.
2 Insert the micro SD card into your Raspberry Pi.
3 Power on your Raspberry Pi.
Within a few seconds you should see iPXE appear and begin booting from the network:
Is there not the need to configure an iPXE server or target to boot from? It would be appreciated if you could look at including the missing / assumed steps / knowledge in the README or with some hints on how to use the software.
