[gPXE] Windows 7 Install to iSCSI with gPXE

[Tal Aloni]

I've been trough that message a couple of times before I managed to install windows 7,
eventually I managed to install using PXE chainloading, and WinPE 3.0, and did that many time over since.

have you added 'set keep-san 1' to the command sequence? (according to my experience, the disk still shows up without it! but not installable)

you can also try what I did, and boot without any local media: after iscsi fail, fallback to WinPE 3.0 via tftp. this might help, because gPXE will stay loaded.

it also helps to install to empty disk, and then create partition, make it active and assign it (just before installation).
if all else fail, try using another software target. (Microsoft iSCSI software target require that you use 'set gateway' to the server immediately after dhcp)
