Greetings.
I need to sync up this commit: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=fedora-infrastructure.git;a=commit;h=06d4...
to secondary01 for boot.fedoraproject.org.
It removes some old serverbeach1 links (making them dl.fedoraproject.org), and adds a 'f17 branched' prerelease install option to boot.fedoraproject.org.
Impact should be very low.

Hi,
I need to sync up this commit: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=fedora-infrastructure.git;a=commit;h=06d4...
to secondary01 for boot.fedoraproject.org.
I think I never received a reply to my question over a year ago whether BFO is still using the mostly abandoned gPXE or have you already switched to iPXE?

I wasn't involved with boot.fedoraproject.org last year. ;)

No, we are using gPXE.
I'm happy with moving to iPXE if it's better/more supported upstream. Do you want to work on that? Our setup is all in the fedora-infrastructure git repo:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=fedora-infrastructure.git;a=tree;f=bfo;h=...
If you want to work on it that would be great. Otherwise I will add it to my list, but it's not likely to be high priority.

Hi,
I'm happy with moving to iPXE if it's better/more supported upstream.
iPXE should be just a drop-in replacement for gPXE so what is mostly needed is to build the iPXE images. You can decide yourself which one seems to be more actively developed and maintained:
http://git.etherboot.org/gpxe.git/shortlog http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/shortlog
Otherwise I will add it to my list, but it's not likely to be high priority.
Basically all what's needed is to have a system with the needed tools to build the iPXE images (adjust the embedded image as needed):
yum install git make gcc perl syslinux genisoimage git clone git://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git ipxe.git cd ipxe.git/src make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.iso make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.usb make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.dsk make EMBEDDED_IMAGE=bfo.gpxe bin/ipxe.lkrn
The current README suggests that the web based rom-o-matic has been used for generating the gPXE images but for iPXE no such service exists so you'd need to compile the images on a suitable system and make them available then on b.f.o.
Thanks,

Hey Marko.

I tried this and got:
make: *** No rule to make target `bin/ipxe.iso'. Stop.
basically it doesn't seem they understand a EMBEDDED_IMAGE option.
Thoughts?

well, forgive me asking, but are you sure you were in the right directory when you tried to build?-)
FOO=bar defines a variable FOO for the build and the error you got was about the missing definition of the actual target, bin/ipxe.iso.
Cheers,

I hope so. I was in my ipxe.git/src/ dir.
FOO=bar defines a variable FOO for the build and the error you got was about the missing definition of the actual target, bin/ipxe.iso.
Right. What I get is:
...bunch of compile... [BUILD] bin/rc80211.o [BUILD] bin/sec80211.o [BUILD] bin/wep.o [BUILD] bin/wpa_psk.o [BUILD] bin/wpa_tkip.o [BUILD] bin/script.o [BUILD] bin/elf.o [BUILD] bin/efi_image.o [BUILD] bin/segment.o make: *** No rule to make target `bfo.gpxe', needed by `bin/embedded.o'. Stop.

Ok, now you're running make in the correct directory, however ...
[BUILD] bin/segment.o make: *** No rule to make target `bfo.gpxe', needed by `bin/embedded.o'. Stop.
... this means that the embedded script was not found.
As mentioned the script contents and path need to be adjusted for what's appropriate for bfo. The reason I didn't say anything explicitly is that there seems to be conflicting information in the files README vs FEDORA-INFRA in fedora-infrastructure.git.
After a bit of investigation it seems that README corresponds to current situation while FEDORA-INFRA does not.
Perhaps we could continue to discussion about these details off-list or on IRC as needed?
Thanks,
