# Agama Network Installation (PXE)
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
The PXE boot infrastructure should already exist:
|
|
|
|
- TFTP/DHCP running (usually dnsmasq)
|
|
- FTP server running (usually vsftp)
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
Extract the Linux kernel and the initrd from the archive:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
osc getbinaries images x86_64 -M ALP-PXE
|
|
tar -C /srv/ftp/image -xf \
|
|
binaries/agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-5.0.0-ALP-PXE-Build4.1.install.tar
|
|
|
|
cp /srv/ftp/image/pxeboot.agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-9.0.0.initrd /srv/tftpboot/boot
|
|
cp /srv/ftp/image/pxeboot.agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-9.0.0.kernel /srv/tftpboot/boot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Update the PXE boot configuration in the `/srv/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default`
|
|
file:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
default menu.c32
|
|
prompt 0
|
|
timeout 120
|
|
|
|
menu title PXE Menu
|
|
|
|
label live
|
|
menu label ^Agama
|
|
kernel /boot/pxeboot.agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-9.0.0.kernel
|
|
append initrd=/boot/pxeboot.agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-9.0.0.initrd rd.kiwi.install.pxe rd.kiwi.install.image=ftp://X.X.X.X/image/agama-installer-openSUSE.x86_64-9.0.0.xz console=ttyS0,115200 rd.kiwi.ramdisk ramdisk_size=2097152
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Testing
|
|
|
|
To test booting Agama in QEMU run these commands:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
qemu-img create mydisk 25g
|
|
qemu -boot n -m 4096 -hda mydisk
|
|
```
