The following steps explain how to create the directory setup containing SLES10 SP2 or SLES11 files for PXE installation.
You can use a different target directory from the /home/pxeboot/sles10/ directory shown. The examples in this procedure use this directory.
Note - You must place the entire contents of SLES10 SP2 or SLES11 in a single directory.
Before You Begin
You must have a copy of the files from the Tools and Drivers CD.
# mkdir -p /home/pxeboot/slesNN
where NN is 10 for SLES10 and 11 for SLES11.
# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom # cp -r /mnt/cdrom/* /home/pxeboot/slesNN/ # umount /mnt/cdrom
where NN is 10 for SLES10 and 11 for SLES11.
