This section describes how to copy the PXE support files, which are required for PXE
configurations, from the Sun Fire V20z and Sun Fire V40z Servers Documentation
and Support Files CD.

You can also download the driver RPMs from the Sun Fire V20z or

1. Insert the Sun Fire Documentation and Support Files CD into the DHCP/PXE

server.

2. Type the following commands to copy the files to the

/tmp/

directory.

#

mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom

#

cp /mnt/cdrom/support/pxeboot/rhel3_64-pxefiles.tar.gz /tmp/

3. Uncompress and extract the contents of the tar file into the

/tmp/

directory by

typing the following command:

# tar -zxf /tmp/rhel3_64-pxefiles.tar.gz
