How-to / how to deploy via NFS?
« on: October 08, 2012, 01:45:40 PM »
the WIKI shows very little information on this.
i have a WDS/syslinux hybrid pxe environment serving up Windows Deployment Services and multiple
linux utilities and distros with no problems.
the problem is we're going to deploy ubermix to about 3000 laptops and i haven't been able to even get it to boot from NFS.
NFS sharing is setup on windows server 2008 r2 and permissions are blown wide open for testing purposes.
here's my menu entry.
the WIKI doesn't state which kernel to use. the error msg i receive is :
that's all. no specific error or anything.
can anyone help? i've been working on this issue for a week with no progress.
