====== Download ======

==== Prebuilt binaries ====

Prebuilt gPXE images are available from [[http://rom-o-matic.net/]].  Images can be generated from official gPXE releases or from the current development tree.  This is probably the easiest way to get started with gPXE.

==== Source code (git) ====

You can browse the current development tree at [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=gpxe.git]], or check out a copy using:

  git clone git://git.etherboot.org/scm/gpxe.git

To update your checked out copy at any time, use:

  git pull

==== Source code (tarballs) ====

If you do not have ''git'' installed, you can download a tarball of the current development snapshot of gPXE from [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=gpxe.git;a=snapshot]] or, a tarball of the most recent official release from  [[http://kernel.org/pub/software/utils/boot/gpxe/]].

==== Extensions in development (gpxe-staging) ====

A separate repository is kept for useful gPXE extensions and patches that have not been sufficiently tested and reviewed to be merged into gPXE mainline. See the [[staging|staging page]] if you'd like to help us test them.

==== Building from Source ====

A complete build of gPXE or Etherboot requires the ''syslinux'' and ''mtools'' packages in your development environment.  ''syslinux'' is required in order to create ISO images. On RedHat/Fedora systems you can install these packages using:

  sudo yum install syslinux mtools

You can then do a complete build of gPXE using:

  cd gpxe/src
  make

**Centos 5 Notes**

You may need to set the value in the line 59 of src/arch/i386/Makefile correctly (/usr/share/syslinux/isolinux.bin), apparently the reference to /usr/lib/syslinux/isolinux.bin is incorrect, this has not been tested in other distros. ISOLINUX_BIN config has been missing for a while.
