I already know how PXE works, etc. That's not an issue.
The issue is I want to network boot openSUSE. Not an installer. I've read all the KIWI-LTSP stuff on the wiki but there aren't clear instructions and seems outdated (the documentation at least).
All I was able to determine is in SUSE Studio website PXE images are disabled, but "SUSE Studio Onsite" is a paid (how many thousands? 50 thousand?) system that can build PXE booting images. That's basically all I need, build an image with a GUI and boot it over PXE. Even if I could boot the LiveCD over PXE, that would be fine. Is there a way to convert some image I build in SUSE studio to PXE image? What is even the difference? Just the proper support in initrd?
Anyone have working recent instructions on how to accomplish this? All I need is to boot a (single) machine over PXE and run firefox.
Andrew, Are you still in Gainesville? All of the functionality of SUSE Studio is available to run on your own system using the kiwi image building system. There isn't a web GUI to configure it, you have to use XML files, but it is pretty easy to use. There are several kiwi packages that install the code, documentation, and examples. There is also documentation on the opensuse web site. Bill -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
