Hello!
I install Linux over network with pxe! There is a DHCP/tftp server and a
nfs server.
The installation works, but the installation starts always when the PC is
booting.
On page 41, chapter 7.1.2, example 7-2 and 7-3, is an example how to stop
Is there a way to solve the problem without remove a file or a symlink,
Hi Bjorn,
And what if your boot disk crashes.. ?
or even our MBR crashes...
your system will re install automatically.. without warning... (and maybe
making you loose some data.)?
Don't you think Fabian's process allow you a better control over "re-
installation"?
Regards,
Damien.

My approach to this is rather simpler, and I'll implement it sometime Real
Soon Now(tm). I've got the hard drive before the NIC in the boot order in
BIOS. On a new PC, there's no bootable MBR so the machine skips the hard
drive and boots from the NIC. When you want to reinstall a machine all
you have to do is make the hard drive unbootable: 'dd if=/dev/zero
of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1' before a reboot should do the trick - this bit
I haven't tested yet...
