== == === Setting up a PXE Boot Environment with openSUSE Linux === == ==
Created onsdag 18 september 2019
A PXE Boot/Install environment has been on my to-do list for ages… for a number of reasons. I frequently update the versions of Linux on my (too) large estate of systems, for many reasons. These days most of the versions of Linux I use are downloaded as ISO CD/DVD images. It’s just plain inconvenient to have to burn these images to physical media, and then go hunting for that disk the next time I want to do an install on another machine. Not to mention environmentally unsound. I have created ad-hoc install servers frequently, it is ridiculously easy to do so using the YaST install server module in the SUSE Linux distributions. However that still needs a bootable CD to get to the install source, and sometimes that’s not convenient, as I have some systems without CD/DVD drives, such as tablets, and laptops with extra batteries in place of the optical drives, etc. So really it’s just to make my life simpler, always a good plan.
