Announcing: Amahi Netboot pre-release
Posted: Mon Aug 03, 2009 3:56 pm
Hi,
We were able to develop this integration of what used to be PXEKnife, but it's better named as Netboot, to boot multiple bootable images over the net:
Please take it for a spin:
rpm -Uvh http://files.getdropbox.com/u/364883/Am ... noarch.rpm
It should not break PBA (does not break it for me), and as a little example of what this can do, we included the famous memtest86+ memory test. See if you can run it by booting off the network after you install that RPM and report back.
If this works well, we will be able to package other things as apps that are net-bootable, such as net-images of Ubuntu and others, anti-virus, clonezilla, etc. etc.!
Thanks to bigfoot65 who's on fire, for helping first hand with this!
