This section describes how to boot the Linux from a PXE network environment.

Before beginning the installation, take note of the prerequisites for the OS that you plan to install.

When the prerequisites are in place, continue with the installation instructions in To Install Linux Using PXE.

Red Hat Linux and Oracle Enterprise Linux Prerequisites

KickStart is Red Hat’s automated installation tool. It enables a system administrator to create a single image containing the settings for some or all installation and configuration parameters that are normally provided during a typical Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Oracle Enterprise Linux installation. Typically, a KickStart image is placed on a single network server and read by multiple systems for installation.

The following requirements must be met prior to performing the RHEL or OEL PXE installation:

• You must have the following media available:

One of the following for OEL:

• OEL4 or OEL5 CD or DVD set (internal or external CD/DVD)
• OEL4 or OEL5 ISO DVD image or KickStart image (network repository)

Fifa 15 working crack for win8. One of the following for RHEL:

• RHEL4 or RHEL5 CD or DVD set (internal or external CD/DVD)
• RHEL4 or RHEL5 ISO DVD image or KickStart image (network repository)
• If you are using a KickStart image to perform the installation, you must:
• Create a KickStart file.
• Create the boot media with the KickStart file or make the KickStart file available on the network.

Follow the KickStart installation instructions in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4: Administration Guide (http://www.redhat.com/docs).

• To use PXE to boot the installation media over the network, you must:
• Configure the network (NFS, FTP, HTTP) server to export the installation tree.
• Configure the files on the TFTP server necessary for PXE booting.
• Configure the Sun Fire X4150, X4250, and X4450 servers MAC network port address to boot from the PXE configuration.
• Configure the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server Prerequisites

AutoYaST enables you to install the SLES operating system on multiple systems. For information about how to prepare an automated installation using AutoYaST, refer to the Novell SUSE documentation collection at:

http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse.html

The following requirements must be met prior to performing the SLES installation from a PXE network book environment.

• You must have the following media available:
• SLES9-SP4 or SLES10-SP3 CD or DVD set (internal or external CD/DVD)
• SLES9-SP4 or SLES10-SP3 ISO DVD image or AutoYaST image (network repository)
• If you are using AutoYaST to perform the installation, you must:
• Create the AutoYast profile.

Follow the AutoYaST installation instructions in the SUSE Linux Enterprise 9 or SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 documentation.

• To use PXE to boot the installation media over the network, you must:
