help to install pxe

[Jáder]

Hi

Did you installed TFTP rpm or just thinclient rpm ?
Did you do a "signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot " as instructed ?
Did you installed ANY source to boot PXE from (like thinkclient rpm or a new one your created) ?

I did install those rpm last weekend just following howto available on documentation.

I just did:

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs --enablerepo=base install smeserver-tftp-server

And be sure to do signal-events after this command.

[cactus]

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=smedev --enablerepo-dag install smeserver-atftp-server

Which should read:

Code: [Select]

yum --enablerepo=smedev --enablerepo=dag install smeserver-atftp-server
BTW please use the code tags to make your instructions more readable.
