There's no netboot folder for ipxe. What am I missing?

MayankTahil commented 4 years ago

I think the example directory needs to be renamed or dockerfile needs updating but the files for TFTP for example are in that directory. I havn't touched this project in over a year so it's me just guessing.

I think the installer.pxe needs to be built, right? I don't think I can just tftp serve up that file and run it. (I literally have never touched ipxe before today)

chelming commented 4 years ago

yeah, I had to compile (?) the installer.pxe to get it to work: docker run -it -v $(pwd)/ipxe/netboot:/custom-pxe -e PXE_FILE=installer.pxe vtajzich/ipxe and use the resulting undionly.kpxe

Is there any reason to do the COPY command in the Dockerfile at all, is there, since the docker-compose.yaml mounts a folder over it anyway? The host mounted folder hides whatever was in the docker image, so I imagine it would be sufficient to put the built .pxe file in there on the host.

Thanks to you both for the clues to putting this together, btw.
