/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart

3. If there are any TFTP daemons that have not timed out, you must stop them. To do

so, enter the following command:
killall in.tftpd

Your TFTP server is now configured.

Providing Linux Kernel and initial ramdisk

To provide Linux kernel and initial ramdisk, proceed as follows:

1. Copy the pxelinux bootloader to the /tftpboot directory.

2. Create a blade specific directory, e.g. /tftpboot/<board-dir>, and copy the

Linux kernel and the initial ramdisk for the boards to this directory.

3. Create a directory /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg. Change to this directory and

create a file named default.<boardname> which will contain the board specific
boot line parameters, for example,
/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default.ATCA7150 DEFAULT <board-

dir>/kernel ramdisk_size=... console=ttyS0,<baudrate>

initrd=<board-dir>/ramdisk.image.gz root=/dev/ram0 ip=none

rw ...

4. In the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg directory, create a softlink for the blade’s

MAC address to the default.<boardname> file:
ln –s default.<boardname> <MAC address with leading 01 and

"–" as delimiter>
