We were able == How to develop this integration of what used to be PXEKnife, but it's better named as Amahi Run Netboot== After installing the app, edit to provide the feature of booting multiple CDadd boot entries:  vi /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/DVD default Making bootable images of various OSs is not trivial. It involves precise setup of files in a web server or NFS share or other way to serve files in your network (or in some cases, off the internet). == Example Configuration == Suppose that you want to boot a Linux OS over the netnetwork, say Fedora 22.
Please take it for a spin:This is the configuration you need in /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
It should not break PBA and as a little example of what this can do, we included the famous memtest86+ memory test label linux menu label Install or upgrade Fedora 22 menu default kernel fedora22/vmlinuz append initrd=fedora22/initrd. See if you can run it by booting off the network after you install that RPMimg repo=<nowiki>http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os</nowiki>
If this works well, we will be able to package other things as apps that are net-bootable!Then you need two files (vmlinuz and initrd.img) inside a directory called fedora22:
To add boot entries cd /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/ mkdir fedora22 cd fedora22 wget <nowiki>http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os/isolinux/vmlinuz</nowiki> wget <nowiki>http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/22/Workstation/x86_64/os/isolinux/initrd.img</nowiki>
/usr/share/amahi-netboot/tftp/pxelinux.cfg/defaultWith that configuration, you should be able to boot Fedora 22 off your network and install from it!
If course, rather then the repo being remote, you can also install from a local repo. For example, if you can make the one form the CD/DVD available in the file system, or via a local web server (This needs e.g. a simple web app pointing to the repo). The configuration will need to change accordingly.
