Setting Up MBA in a Server Environment:
Red Hat Linux PXE Server
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution has PXE Server support. It
allows users to remotely perform a complete Linux installation over the
network. The distribution comes with the boot images boot
kernel
(vmlinuz) and initial ram disk (initrd), which are located on the Red Hat
disk#1:
/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
/images/pxeboot/initrd.img
Refer to the Red Hat documentation for instructions on how to install PXE
Server on Linux.
However, the Initrd.img file distributed with some Red Hat Enterprise Linux
distributions does not have a Linux network driver for the AT-ANC10S/2
network adapter. These distributions require a driver disk for drivers that
are not part of the standard distribution. You download the driver software
files from the Allied Telesis web site.
