Hi all, I have a lot of servers on order, so I want to be able to just network boot them as a jumpstart into the installation (which will then be scripted). I am most of the way there. I have tested my NFS shares and if I boot a boxe off a cd, I can do the nfs installation without fail. I have setup pxeboot, and if I am far enough along that when I boot off the network, it tftp's the files it needs, boots through menus, loads the generic kernel, mounts an nfs root, then errors. The errors are "exec /sbin/init: error 70". One error for each attempt at an init file. Then it gives me an "init: not found in path /sbin/init:/sbin/oinit......" Then it panics and reboots. There is so much I've done, I'm not sure what specifics anyone might need to offer some assistance. Chrishome | help
