2.

Replace the lines kernel hpvoot_v.c32 with kernel vmlinuz.

3.

Remove vmlinuz from the append line.

NOTE:

The paths to files on the TFTP server are vmlinuz and initrd.img. You must

modify them to include any directories or naming conventions you may have on your TFTP
server.

Specifying the ISO Image Path

For the PXE booted server to find the ISO Image, you must add the ISO Image path to the append
line in the PXELINUX configuration file.

Add the following arguments:

iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso

iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice

The iso1 parameter helps the PXE booted Smart Update Firmware DVD locate the ISO image.
The iso1mnt parameter tells the PXE booted FWDVD where the iso1 image must be mounted.

Your final configuration must be similar to the following example:

label sos

MENU LABEL Automatic Firmware Update Version 9.10

kernel vmlinuz

append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0

ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid

pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=AUTOMATIC

iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso

iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice

label vsos

MENU LABEL Interactive Firmware Update Version 9.10

kernel vmlinuz

append initrd=initrd.img media=cdrom rw root=/dev/ram0

ramdisk_size=257144 init=/bin/init loglevel=3 ide=nodma ide=noraid

pnpbios=off vga=791 splash=silent showopts TYPE=MANUAL

iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso

iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice

You can add additional ISO images by specifying the additional iso# and iso#mnt arguments,
for example:

iso2=/path/to/iso2.iso iso2mnt=/mnt/iso2.

Supported network file systems

The following network file systems are supported for use with PXE booting:

NFS:

iso1=nfs://192.168.0.99/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW900.iso

iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice

NFS volumes are mounted with the following options:

-o ro

nolock

Windows operating systems:

iso1=smbfs://192.168.0.99/share/path/to/fwdvd/image/FW910.iso

iso1mnt=/mnt/bootdevice
