Prerequisites
Before proceeding with the configuration, you must have all the prerequisites:
•
A good, working knowledge of PXE and TFTP
•
A network with a DHCP server on it
•
A TFTP server configured on the same network as the DHCP server
•
A network file server that hosts the ISO images and is accessible by a PXE booted system
•
PXELinux (

)
These instructions presume that you are using a Linux TFTP server and the TFTP package
(
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/tftp
). Other TFTP servers should work similarly.
