PXE // RHEL/CentOS

See PXE Setup for overall PXE instructions. This is RHEL/CentOS specific.

Eventually spare some bandwith by copying the release from the ISO image

mkdir mnt/; mount CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1708.iso mnt/
ls -ldhF /var/lib/tftpboot/
cp -R mnt/ /var/lib/tftpboot/CentOS7x64-1708/
umount mnt/; rmdir mnt/

and finish-up (namely images/pxeboot is missing) using some mirror

remote="rsync://mirror.yandex.ru/centos/7.4.1708/os/x86_64"
#remote="rsync://mirror.logol.ru/centos/7.4.1708/os/x86_64"

rsync -avz --delete-after $remote/images/pxeboot/ /var/lib/tftpboot/centos7x64/images/pxeboot/
rsync -avz --delete-after $remote/ /var/lib/tftpboot/centos7x64/

unset remote

Setup the PXE menu

vi /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default

label centos7 install
    kernel centos7x64/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
    append initrd=centos7x64/images/pxeboot/initrd.img ip=dhcp method=http://x.x.x.x/centos7x64/ text

    append initrd=centos7x64/images/pxeboot/initrd.img ip=dhcp method=http://x.x.x.x/centos7x64/ rescue

label centos7 kickstart FULLY AUTOMATED DANGEROUS
