I have a netboot system that works over TFTP. It consists of vmlinuz and initrd.<br><br>I want to convert it to gPXE so it will boot across subnets.<br><br>So I put the files on a web server and tried to test from the gPXE command line:<br>
<br><b>gPXE> kernel <a href="http://ip-address/gpxe/vmlinuz">http://ip-address/gpxe/vmlinuz</a><br></b><br>That command works. However,<br><br><b>gPXE> initrd <a href="http://ip-address/gpxe/initrd">http://ip-address/gpxe/initrd</a><br>
</b><br>just slowly fills up the screen with periods. I tried using the <b>append </b>command from the working pxelinux setup:<br><br><b>append ramdisk_blocksize=4096 initrd=/gpxe/initrd root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=144000000 console=ttyS3 splash=silent vga=791<br>
</b><br>but gpxe doesn't have append.<br><br>The initrd is about 143MB. <br><br>What to do?<br><br>Ben<br> <br><br>
