Hello, I copied over both dvd1 and dvd2 into a somedir/ on the ftp install
I think you just need dvd1, dvd2 contains only sources.
server. While netbooting from the tftp/bootp server I do not get the option to send in the install=ftp:// option as it boots into the linux image by default. However it then drops to the menu through which I am able to ask it to install over network (ftp) through the boot menus (those must be the linuxrc menus, is it not?). However I still get the 'Cannot read package data from installation media. media error? ERROR: no proposal'. How can I use mkzimage_cmdline to include the install=ftp commandline to the inst64 file? and where do I access this utility from?
Its in sles10 lilo.rpm in /bin, in sles9 it is in /lib/lilo/chrp/ mkzimage_cmdline -a 1 -s 'install=ftp://1.2.3.4/dir/DVD1' inst64
