====== Daniel Verkamp: Automated regression testing ====== ===== Journal Week 4 ===== ==== Monday, June 15 ==== Investigated boot-up messages about wget not finding a URL with a mkbootfs system; this seems to be due to missing contents of /proc/cmdline, but I am not sure what format this should be in or what the purpose of it is. Sidetracked by a discussion of serial support for COMBOOT in gPXE (for menu.c32); wrote a quick hack, which worked, but this will need more cleanup before it's ready. ==== Tuesday, June 16 ==== Working on [[:soc:2009:dverkamp:notes:windows_7_install_to_iscsi]]. First, I had problems because my router did not routeback packets to the local network. Enabling the option for this on my router fixed that problem, allowing the iSCSI disk to show up in setup. Then I hit the problem where setup would not continue with the message about being unable to boot from the selected disk. Connecting a physical hard disk allows setup to continue to the "copying files" stage, but after the following reboot, the iSCSI target will not boot. DEBUG=bootsect reports "Booted disk returned via INT 18 or 19".
