Solved -PXE Boot machines showing no such file or directory.

[jmgibson1981]

*EDIT* Never realized how much Ubuntu does for you. Adjusting TFTP_DIRECTORY in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa to /var/lib/tftpboot and everything is working now. Another one bites the dust. One final issue to go.

Trying to get my pxe installation server working. It is on same host as ltsp server.

Relevant part of dhcpd.conf

Code: Select all

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    range 192.168.1.150 192.168.1.250;
    option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.2;
    option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
    option routers 192.168.1.1;
    next-server 192.168.1.2;
    option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
    filename "installers/pxelinux.0";
}

I'm trying this with a virtualbox machine. It gets the next server, and filename.

Code: Select all

Next server: 192.168.1.2
Filename: installers/pxelinux.0
tftp://192.168.1.2/installers/pxelinux.0... No such file or directory (http://ipxe.org/2d12603b)
No more network devices
FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System halted.

Copied the whole installers folder directly over from my old Ubuntu installation.
