dns names in pxelinux.cfg/0A files

26 Jan 2005

      Hi,

I'm doing autoinstallations of suse 8.2, sles 8 and sles 9 with pxe.

I just noticed that I always have to key in the ip address for
autoyast=nfs://IP/path and install=nfs://IP/path in the pxelinux.cfg/0A
file. Why? My dhcp Server supplies DNS Information so it shouldn't be to
hard to figure out the IP Address of the Server. Is there any linuxrc out
there that can resolv names?

regards Thomas
