Hi linux Gurus,
I am trying to configure a network installation server on CentOS(2.6.9).
The point where i stucked is .
The client is not able to find my dhcp server.
The steps which i have taken is:
1) copy all the 4 cd disk to /data/network-install/x86/CentOs/RPM
2) copy all the 4 cd image to /data/network-install/x86/CentOs/ISO
3)configured NFS as (in /etc/exportfs)
/data/network *(ro,sync)
4)configured ftp as
anon_root=/data/network-install/x86/CentOs/RPM
5) Configured dhcp server by putting mac address ,hostname and ip.
Now after booting the client with CentOs 1st cd and choosing te option :-
1) Lan Boot
results: perfect (i.e it get the ip same address as mentioned in Dhcp)
2) linux askmethod
a) Dynamic Ip by dhcp
results:- fail with error
Pump Told us : no dhcp reply recived.
b) static ip
results:- proceed , but failed to mount the nfs share and anonymous
dir shared by the server.
Hope the above Information will clear my situation .
I am not getting any way around, can any one show me a light.
Any suggestion is welcome.
One thing i will like to mention here is that after installation ,
client find my dhcp successfully . and also
Thanks for your Time...
