How do I do a network based installation from leslie?
leslie is configured to offer a Debian Etch installer via the network.
If you would like to use it, follow these steps:
- Login to leslie as root.
- Run /root/bin/enable-pxe-netboot
- Find the network cable plugged into the bottom network card on leslie (leslie is the bottom-most server in the cabinet). It should not be plugged into anything.
- Plug this cable into the nic of the server you want to install debian on.
- Configure the target server to boot from the network device
- You should be all set. Note: when the debian installer begins, you can unplug the network cable, and plug in a cable connecting the server to the real network for the completion of the installation.
