+ | ====== Booting from an AoE target ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Place the following two lines in ///etc/dhcpd.conf//: | ||
+ | |||
+ | filename ""; | ||
+ | option root-path "aoe:eN.M"; | ||
+ | |||
+ | where //eN.M// is the AoE target name that you selected for your target. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You will probably need to restart your DHCP server for the changes to take effect: | ||
+ | |||
+ | root@chipmunk# /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart | ||
+ | |||
+ | Boot your diskless client using gPXE. If all has gone well, you should see it boot from your AoE target image. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Congratulations on a successful boot from SAN! | ||
